Fantasy Cricket Manager
(formerly known as Fantasy League
Manager) |
 |
|
| |
 |
| |
Fantasy cricket league
competitions, similar to those in various national newspapers but based on your
own club's players, can be a lot of fun and a good way of raising much needed
funds for your club - one club made over £700 profit in one year from
their competition!
The rules of these competitions vary but basically the entrants select a team
of players and the winner is the person whose team accumulates the most points
for their batting, bowling and fielding performances throughout the season.
Running a fantasy cricket league competition used to involve a lot of work
producing the entry forms, checking that the teams conformed to the rules of
the competition, calculating the points for the teams after each match and
producing a league table but the Fantasy Cricket Manager add-on
for Cricket Statistics for Windows can take care of all these
jobs for you.
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
With just a few mouse
clicks or keystrokes, the Fantasy Cricket Manager can produce the
following reports:
|
|
| |
 |
League Table |
 |
 |
Team Summary |
 |
 |
Player Ratings |
 |
 |
Entry Form |
 |
 |
Player List |
|
|
| |
These reports can be
printed, viewed on screen, exported to HTML files for publishing on a web site
or exported to other Windows applications (e.g. Spreadsheets, Word Processors
or Desk Top Publishing packages).
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Data entry simply involves
entering the teams into the Fantasy Cricket Manager which then
checks that they conform to the rules of the competition.

Details of the players' performances in each match are entered via
Cricket Statistics for Windows, which normally only takes around
5 - 10 minutes per match, and the Fantasy Cricket Managerthen
extracts the relevant information to compile its reports.
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Each fantasy team must
contain 11 players which can be substituted at any time during the season (a
maximum of 11 substitutions are allowed per fantasy team).
You can avoid everyone selecting the same 11 best players for their fantasy
teams by allocating each player a value (based on their performance in previous
seasons) and defining a maximum total value for the fantasy teams.

You can define the minimum and maximum number of batsmen, bowlers, all rounders
and wicket keepers allowed in each fantasy team and, if required, you can even
define the minimum and maximum number of each type of batsmen (e.g. opener,
middle order, tailender) and bowlers (e.g. seam, spin, fast, medium etc.).
The points awarded to players for runs, wickets, 50s, 5-wkts catches, stumpings
etc. can be defined so you can easily 'tune' the system to suit your
competition.

If required, you can apply different weightings for each type of match (e.g.
friendlies, league etc.), each team (e.g. 1st XI, 2nd XI etc.) and each type of
player (e.g. full member, colt etc.).

The Fantasy Cricket
Manager would not have been half the program it is today without the
valuable feedback I've received from its many users. So, if you have a query
about the program or you have any ideas for improvements or new features,
please complete the feedback form and email it
to me.
