The Tanzania Premier League Board (TPLB) have dropped the rule of using five substitutions in a single match and will revert to three subs when the Mainland Premier League season kicks off on Sunday.
The federation used the new rule during the last eight matches of the league last season after the Tanzania government allowed the resumption of the top-flight which had been halted in mid-March owing to the effects caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
However, TPLB CEO Almas Kasongo has now confirmed they will not use the rule when the season starts as they will revert to the previous rule of three substitutions per game for each team.
