Rules
01 Riders score points in any competitive club fixture between two teams. Therefore, unlike last season, Craven Shield qualifying matches will count. The Elite Shield does not count, however. In addition, riders will also score points when they guest for another team. Challenge matches do not count.
02 If a rider is 'doubling up', he counts as two separate riders. If he guests for a team, the points will be added to the rider competing at the same level, where applicable.
03 If you transfer a rider into your team, he will start scoring points towards your total from the begining of the next day. For example, if you transfer a rider in on a Monday he will not score points for your team until Tuesday. Meanwhile, the rider you have transfered out will continue to score points for your team until the end of Monday.
04 Riders do not score points for your team if you sign them and then sell them on the same day.
05 Additional points scored as a tactical rider do count towards a rider's total.
06 Points scored in an abandoned meeting do count towards a rider's total, even if the result does not stand.
07 Rider averages will not be updated during the course of the season but new riders entering the British leagues may be added.
08 The rider averages are correct to the best of our knowledge but if there are minor discrepancies they will not be changed at this stage because they may render invalid teams that have already been selected and confirmed.
09 Most riders competing in either the Elite League or the Premier League will be available for selection. In addition, selected riders from the Conference League will also be available. For simplicity's sake, riders from stand-alone Conference League clubs are available, the other Conference League riders are not.
10 Each team has a transfer allowance of 14 for the season, which you can use at any time. You can make limitless transfers up to and including the day before the first competitive match takes place, at which point they will all be cleared.
11 Since there is no entry fee, there are no prizes.
12 During the Mushroom Cup knockout phases, scores entered into the system are correct to the best of our knowledge and although corrections will be made when errors have occurred, Mushroom Cup scores cannot be retrospectively corrected if the competition has progressed to the next round.
13 If it becomes apparent an error has been made, with a rider's score, for example then those errors can and will be corrected and backdated accordingly.
14 If your team is invalid you should report this immediately via the contact page. If you fail to do so, Speedway Fantasy League reserves the right to restore your team to a valid formation. Any changes made to restore your team to a valid formation are non negotiable.
15 We accept that we cannot stop people from opening multiple accounts and entering more than five teams by that method but if Speedway Fantasy League deems this activity to be excessive on the part of any individual(s), those additional accounts may be deleted.
Competitions
01 Main league (Standings)
All teams are automatically entered into the main league. The team that accumulates the most points across the entire season wins the competition.
02 The Mushroom Cup
The Mushroom Cup is designed to give late entries as well as the original entrants a chance to win. The format is as follows: The 64 highest scoring teams in the first two weeks, then the second two weeks, then the third and and so on, witha total of 8 qualification periods all qualify for the knockout stages, producing a total of 512 teams for the second round. Those 512 teams will then be pitted against each other in the knockout stages that will take place over the following weeks.
It is possible for a team to qualify for the second round up to eight times. If this happens then you've merely increased your chances of winning. Should those teams be drawn against each other at any stage during the knockout stages then effectively, that team receives a bye into the next round.
03 Minor leagues
All teams are automatically entered into a minor league of up to 15 teams. You cannot have two teams in the same minor league so if you have multiple teams they will automatically be allocated to separate minor leagues.
