Team Selections

All team management decisions such as player transfers and choosing your captain occur under the Manage My Team tab. You can select your team by following our simple on-screen instructions. Alternatively, you can use the handy Autocomplete function to help pick your team, which can then be freely modified right up until the first round starts.

The following rules apply to team selection:

You will need to select your team in the standard 4-4-2 configuration as shown.

  • 1 x Goalkeeper
  • 4 x Defenders
  • 4 x Midfielders
  • 2 x Strikers

You must select a full team of 11 players and your captain before you can save your team.

Your captain can be any player in your team and he will score double points.

The maximum number of players allowed per team is 3.

Scoring Points

Your Dream Team is awarded points based on the actual performance of the players in your team during each match. Scores are updated at the end of each round.

The selected players in your team score points as follows:

Action Details Points
Appearance For playing in a full game 4

For playing in a part of a game 2
Result Points Win points 4

Draw points 2
Goals For each goal scored by your goalkeeper or defenders

10


For each goal scored by your midfielders and strikers 8
Assists For each goal assist 5
Clean Sheets For your goalkeeper / defender keeping a clean sheet 8

For your midfielder keeping a clean sheet 4
Goals Against For 2 or more goals scored against your goalkeeper / defender -1
Cards Yellow card -2

Red card (includes any yellow card points) -4

Note:

  • A goal assist is awarded to the player who makes the last pass to the actual goal scorer. Assists may also be awarded for a player substantially contributing to the goal. (For example, a player makes a run and shoots at goal, goalie blocks but the ball bounces out to another player who then scores the goal. The first player who originally shot at goal may be awarded an assist). Assists are awarded based on data feeds and the judges' decision. The decision of the judges is final and no further correspondence will be entered into.
  • Players sent off with a red card won't be credited with a full appearance.

Player Transfers

Player transfers occur on the Manage My Team page. You can make unlimited transfers before the tournament starts. Changing your captain within your existing team does not count as one of your available transfers.

  • The PSL Fantasy League is divided into 30 rounds.
  • Once the tournament starts, you are restricted to a maximum of 3 transfers per round.
  • There is a limit of 60 transfers for the whole tournament.

Note:
The Manage My Team page is temporarily unavailable while a round is in progress. It will only open at the end of a round once the scores have been updated. You can then make changes to your team for the next round. The Transfer Window will remain open up until the start of the next round. A countdown clock indicates the time remaining until Lockout. Be sure to choose carefully before saving your team as all changes are final and cannot be reversed.

Leagues

Playing in a league allows you to monitor your performance against everybody else participating in the game. There are two types of public leagues known as the Global League and Round League. You can also set up one or many Private Leagues in either game format where you challenge your friends and family to play against you. Here’s how it works:

Global Fantasy League
All Dream Team managers are automatically registered in this league which displays the Top 500 players in the competition.

Fantasy Round League
Displays the Top 500 Dream Team managers from the current round and allows you to monitor your round by round performance.

Private Leagues
You can create your own Private League in the Dream Teams. The option to set up or join a Private League can be accessed from the My Leagues page once you have logged in. You can choose to send an automatic email to your friends by entering their email addresses online, or alternatively you can forward your Private League code to them. You can also upload your own logo for your league. An additional feature in the Leagues area is a message board which you can use to communicate with other team managers in your League by posting comments. The League Administrator has the functionality to delete uninvited teams or inappropriate comments.
