Subject: [NT] Pool Contest - Season 12

Team Canada Season 12 Pool Contest

Tried this last season - was kind of interesting. There are some tweaks in the rules this time round. So pay attention! :)

Select a player from each of the categories. Points will be awarded according to the scoring system. Contest will run from Week 4 to Week 14. Winner will get to name an eligible player of their choice to the Week 0 friendly match.

Tie-breaker: it’s possible two managers could end up with the same number of points. As a tie-breaker, select the Sokker nation (other then Poland) that you think will progress the furthest in the World Cup. No duplicates please!

You can join any time, tho obviously it's best to get in near the start.

POINT SYSTEM

Cap - 5 points

Completed pass - 1 point
Completed cross pass - 2 points
Assist - 5 points

Completed tackle - 1 point
Last man tackle - 2 points

Shot - 1 point
Shot on target - 2 points
Goal - 5 points
“Padding” goal - 4 points
(padding goals are goals beyond +2 in the final score. Ie., if the final score is 4-1, the 4th goal is a “padding goal)

Foul or yellow card - -2 points
Red card - -5 points

(Keeper)
Off target shot faced - 1 point
Save - 3 points
Win - 10 points
Clean Sheet - 5 points

Note: can only get one score per category. Ie., a goal is a shot and a shot on target, but it would get 5 points, not 8 points.

Tie-breaker? ________

Other points:

- let's make it two trades this season. Twice, at any time, you can swap a player for another in the same category.

- if there's a player you'd like added to a category - feel free to suggest it!

Also consider:
- Canada is in the World Cup (best possible line-up, minimum 3 match commitment)
- Canada is in the U21 World Cup (players aged 21 & under, minimum 3 match commitment)
- otherwise, I will be looking to field players in their prime (22-26) in friendlies
