Player Transfers
If you join before the season starts you can make as many changes to the players in your team as you like up until the start of the season.
In the space of the season, usually Sept – May you may make up to 11 player changes to your team
Picking the right players will be critical if you have your sights set on the Fantasy Squash prize. To help you with this there are player rankings and profile pages showing statistics on how many points the players have made, which bonus’s are the most useful and which players are the most popular. As the season progresses the statistics become more and more meaningful making them critical for selecting the best players.
Earning Points
As your players compete in PSA events they earn your team points depending on how they perform. The main stem of these points will be aligned exactly with the points the players receive towards their PSA ranking which are shown below. The chart shows tournament size, position reached and the points obtained in all PSA sanctioned events.
The majority of the points earned will be based on the PSA chart above, however there are also several bonus points your players can earn which will make or break your season!
