For those not familiar with how the game works, fantasy league is a game in which you are a manager and you pick a team made up of Abingdon hockey players (see rules section), these players will accumulate points every week based on their real-life performances (see rules section). Then your team points are accumulated to give you a total score for the week. An example is shown below:
| Team | Squad | Week 2 8/10/16 |
| Tony Edwards | 1s | 9 |
| Nick Green | 1s | 14 |
| Phil Mawby | 2s | 3 |
| Ash Sutcliffe | 2s | -4 |
| Simon Kellard | 3s | 1 |
| Connor Blakey | 1s | 6 |
| Jason Hemmings | 3s | 6 |
| Joe Ross | 3s | 4 |
| Dan Watson | 2s | 1 |
| Adam Passfield | 2s | 8 |
| Will Trigg | 1s | 4 |
| 52 |
Your team will be competing in 2 competitions as described below.
Fantasy League
The main competition is the fantasy hockey league which for this season will be split into separate men’s and Ladies leagues. This is a simple competition in which the manager who accumulates the most points over the course of the season wins.
Fantasy Shield
The second competition is a league competition but in a completely different format to the main fantasy league. This competition works on a match play system, every week your team ‘plays’ another team, the team with the most points that week gets 3 points or 1 point for a draw.
You are able to submit a team for both men’s and ladies leagues

Transfers
Every manager will start with 1 transfer when the season starts, On the first Saturday of each month managers, are given another transfer. These transfers do accumulate if you don’t wish to use them. At the Xmas break, I give managers a bonus transfer.
Transfer requests must be submitted before 9pm on Fridays to be eligible for the games on Saturday (This is to give me time to process the changes in time for Saturday)
Transfer requests to be sent to williampgreen1992@gmail.com
In the email just put your name, team name and the players in and out that you want.
Team Entries
Enter your team before the 21st Sept, this is due to the league starting for the ladies and Men’s 3rd team.
So make sure you get your team in before so as not to lose points.
1 men’s team and 1 ladies team per entrant.
If you know ex-members or even family/friends that would like to play then they are more than welcome, just forward the emails to them so they can fill out the forms.
Prizes
Manager of the month- the manager with the most points at the end of each month will receive a free game.
The winner of the main fantasy league will be awarded a free ticket to the end of season do, 1 each for men’s/ ladies league.
