As part of raising funds for next seasons tour, i was thinking about running a club based fantasy league. The thinking behind this is this:

1. Each player in the club is assigned a "value" based on past seasons performance and alike as well as a nominated position
2. Each participant then picks a team of 7 players 4 back and 3 forwards or vice versa within a budget
3. Participants then pay a weekly fee of a couple of quid on top of match subs and are awarded points based based on their teams performance that week. fees being split between tour kitty and prizes.
4. The award structure will be along the lines of this
• Playing full game - 2 points
• Playing part game - 1 point
• Try - 3 points
• Drop Goal - 2 points
• Penalty - 1 point
• Team score 4 tries - 1 point per player
• team lose by less than 7 - 1 point per player
• no tries conceded - 1 point per player
• Opposition captain's MOTM - 5 points
• ATTENDING TRAINING - 1 POINT PER SESSION
• 1ST TEAM DEBUT - 5 POINTS

• Yellow Card - -5 points
• Red Card - -10 points

Has anybody ran anything like this before with success/failure?

Any comments on the scoring system ( i have a secret agenda to use this get the players encourage each other between 1st and 2nds and to train every week)

Have left negative scoring to minimum as to introduce negativity but there may be some more point deduction activities.

All comments / suggestions welcome
