2023/2024 €50 Draft League H2H

I was wondering how hanging on to injured players was effecting people’s weekly outcomes.

I think I’ve learned from previous years not to hang on to them. Yes to maybe one but there’s always the danger that they don’t come back when expected and are also more injury prone when they do come back.

I think focusing on week to week is the best way and get the points when you can.

Pretty sure I lost to this dead team last time too.

From memory the H2H format made the league much closer than classic scoring.

Unfortunately every year people stop playing (understandably) at some stage. I don’t know what we can do about that.

I did suggest, one year, that if someone decides to drop out of the league that they could swap out all their players for duds and put the good players back into the player pool. We did say we’d talk about it (as we couldn’t do it mid season without agreeing to it from the start) but we never revisited it.

I’m not sure it would even make a big difference but it could add something.

I originally started it as a WTA league because I always believe the overall winner should be rewarded and especially in such a small league.

At least for next season we have agreed to have the draft after the transfer window has closed so that will be something different that might make it more competitive.

Interesting.

Was it deemed a success ?

It does make sense if the ‘runner up’ prize was to be €50 for the highest weekly score.
