Eligibility for scoring points:
- Ten fixtures for each team have been selected to participate in the fantasy league. These fixtures are listed below.
- Players score points when playing in one of the participating fixtures for their designated team.
- Players who miss one of the fixtures for their designated team but play for another team in a participating fixture on the same day will score points for that team. Playing in another fixture as well as the one for their team will not generate extra points, neither will playing in a fixture for another team on a day when the player’s designated team does not have a fixture.
- Players score points according to the positions they have been given, regardless of where they actually play during a match.
- If a fixture is postponed then the rearranged fixture will be substituted into the fantasy league in place of the postponed fixture.
- If a fixture is cancelled as a result of a walkover then all players who would otherwise have played in the fixture will be credited with the points resulting from participation in that fixture with the walkover score, although no player will be credited with scoring the goals in case of a walkover in favour of the Hawks team.
