The IFAB is made up of an Advisory Panel, Technical Panel, and a Technical Subcommittee.
Some of the most popular names include previous Real Madrid wing Luis Figo, Arsenal's previous manager Arsene Wenger, Japan star Hidetoshi Nakata, president of San Diego Wave Jill Ellis, and Welsh referee Cheryl Foster. Other brands include previous referee Pierluigi Collina, UEFA captain of sports Zvonimir Boban, and Pedro Losa, Scotland children's head manager.
One of the most recent controversy was when the board proposed the concept of sin-bins. The panel has occasionally come under fire.
The soccer lawmakers said they would examine new rules to strengthen player behavior rather than extending the use of sin-bins or introducing blue cards.
Despite ongoing testing since 2017, Fifa leader Gianni Infantino ruled out the use of blue cards in wealthy sports.
After its annual general meeting in March, IFAB stated in a statement that "any potential wider program will only be considered once the effects of these changes has been evaluated."
Tottenham supervisor Ange Postecoglou expressed concern that momentary dismissals may "destroy the game" when the idea of using orange cards to show a 10-minute sin-bin came out next month. In addition, Eddie Howe and Jurgen Klopp, original England boss, criticized the club.
