This year sees the return of the inaugural Cookham Dean CC Fantasy Cricket League Competition! Hopefully this is something that lots of people will participate in and enjoy. Clearly, players ratings are not only a function of playing ability but also how regularly they are expected to make themselves available. So anybody who believes they have been assigned an artificially low rating should pick themselves and play as much as possible!
Rules are listed below:
CDCC Fantasy League
The Rules
1. Entrance to the competition is £10.
2. Each cricketer at the club has been allocated a price between 0 and 15. Entrants must pick eleven cricketers, whilst ensuring that they do not exceed their budget of 90 nominal points.
3. Cricketers can accrue points in all Cookham Dean CC games played on Saturdays and Sundays, and in Midweek Twenty20, Over 45s and Under 17s fixtures. The sum of points earned by each entrants’ eleven players in any one week will dictate their weekly total of points.
