This is a place you should avoid at all costs.

The sin-bin is the bench where all players who have been bad sit out of the game for 10 minutes.

If the referee believes a player has committed a serious foul or shown indiscipline, then he will show them a yellow card, just like in football.

However, unlike football, that player must then immediately leave the pitch.

They then have to sit in the sin-bin for 10 minutes while the game continues without them.

This is music to the opposition's ears because they have one more player on their side.
