The Premier League have updated the ruling and guidance for the multiball system, which will come into effect from match round 30.
This has been done in order to minimise interruption to matches when the ball goes out of play.
When the ball goes out of play and is not quickly retrievable, players must go to the nearest cone to collect a replacement ball themselves to restart play
4x additional balls wills be on the touchlines
Ball assistants are not permitted to return a ball to a player
Ball assistants are required to return a ball to a vacant cone each time a replacement ball is used
Ball assistants should not be positioned next to the cones so that it is clear they will not return balls to players
