From the PAL rules:

Issuance of Cards
Player receiving yellow will serve a 2-minute, a red card will serve a 4 minute penalty and the team will play short below each restraining
line. A player who receives a yellow or red card will serve the penalty in their team bench area. All penalties are non-releasable. Anyone
receiving 2 yellow cards in the game will be suspended from further participation in the game. Anyone receiving a Red card will be
suspended from further participation in that game and the team’s next game. Should a team receive its fourth card of the game they will play
short for the remainder of the game, and an additional player will be removed from the game for each subsequent card received. Any card
given to a player or head coach will count toward their team’s cumulative total. The carded player will serve the 2 minute penalty time and she
may return to the game only if she has not been suspended or ejected and only if another player leaves the field using normal substitution
procedures. If the coach is carded, the coach must designate a player who will serve the penalty. If the player receiving the yellow card is the
goalkeeper and there is no dressed goalkeeper for the team, the goalkeeper may remain in the game and the coach will designate another
field player on the field to take the penalty. If a Coach is issued a red card, the coach will be ejected from the playing area, and reported to the
PAL Ethics Chair. If there is no replacement coach, the game will end and the other team will be declared the winner.
Umpires have the authority to issue a “Post Game” Red Card to any player or coach for actions that would have
