Changes aim to tighten interpretation of existing rules. Offside tricks are curtailed by stricter calls and require play resets. Substitutes must report to the referee, and only one player may be offside at a time during exchanges. Captains may request timeouts sparingly in the final minutes. No player may be out of bounds when the ball is put in play.
