During a game of hockey, following an offence, if a player is shown a yellow card then he will be sent off the pitch for _______.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 5 minutes.
During a game of hockey, if a player is shown a yellow card, they will be sent off the pitch for 5 minutes. This is a temporary suspension, and the player must remain off the field for the duration of the penalty, after which they are allowed to return to play. The yellow card indicates a serious foul or misconduct, and the team plays with one less player during this period.
