What may happen if an agent is found guilty of minor infractions?

When an agent is found guilty of minor infractions, receiving a warning or fine serves as a proportional response to maintain standards within the profession without resorting to harsh penalties. This approach allows the regulatory body to correct behavior while still providing the agent an opportunity to demonstrate adherence to the established rules in the future.

Warnings and fines are particularly suited for minor infractions as they encourage compliance and awareness of regulations, serving both as a deterrent for future violations and as a method of education for the agents involved. It is a way to balance accountability with a chance for improvement, thus fostering a more professional sporting environment.

While community service, temporary suspension, or having no consequences could be considered in some contexts, they typically align with more serious offenses or lack of accountability altogether, which is not appropriate for minor infractions.
