Premier League made a change to the multi-ball protocol guidelines
Premier League made a rule change to prevent ball boys and girls handing match ball directly to the players.
Idman.biz reports that PL made this change to remove any potential advantage for home teams.
Instead of handing the match ball directly to the players, match boys and girls will place the ball on the cons around the pitch.
It should be noted that this rule change is also designed to avoid touchline clashes.
