The Scotton Scorchers are running a fantasy league this season in order to raise funds for the club, and to create a bit of competition and fun between the parents. The format of the league will be that teams will play each other each week to gain points in the league which will run until the end of the season.
The fantasy league is run by fantasy.premierleague.com and is free to enter on this site. However from a fund raising perspective we would like every entrant to pay £5 for the season. 50% of the entry fees will be donated to the club and the other 50% will be offered in prizes. The exact split of the prize fund will depend on numbers of entrants but we will probably have a prize for the winner and runner up, and a small prize for the team finishing in last place (to keep a bit of interest for the teams that are "less successful").
If you wish to enter then please create your team at http://fantasy.premierleague.com. Entering a team is also a commitment to pay the £5 entry fee which I will collect in due course. If you are under 18 then you will require full permission from your parents to enter, using your parents e-mail address during the entry process. You have until 18th September to enter your team.
Once you have created your team, click on the 'Leagues' link you can find on the right of the page. Now enter the code [which has been e-mailed to all parents or can be obtained from me if you e-mail me at richard.topham1@tiscali.co.uk] to join the private league.
Enjoy the game. And good luck
Richard Topham
