Cool!!! Looks pretty solid for data entry!

What I'm really looking forward to is the fantasy part, I've made a lot of build-ups to give to my own programmers to make something like this, but I've never progressed it, so I got tons of variables in my mind for this. Looking forward to seeing it :)

Well, since I have not done that part yet, why don't you post a list of what you would like to see?

The only thing that I know I will not be able to do is the custom jerseys that a member can create for his fantasy team.

Do you plan on using a draft system to allocate the players to the teams or how will the selection of players take place?

There's an American Football fantasy program at phpffl.com that may have some useful features. Some features I'd like to see would be:

- draft feature
- customisable scoring (admin defines points for each type of score)
- head to head feature (users play against each other each week in a league format)
- sortable stats so users can see who is scoring well
- trades (ability for transfers between users or to pick up players who have not been signed by anyone)
- easy interface to allow admins to update the scores each week. File upload would be perfect but I assume that would be difficult so if it's as easy as possible to key in scores that would be helpful.

most of these and more are in the making. I am trying to make it as generic as possible so it could accomodate any sport according to admin defined rules.

In players input screen for sport league there is a fantasy section where you set players cost etc ... Putting a price will make it available for selection in fantasy.
