Point Systems
The Scoring Engine That Powers Your Fantasy Success
At Playmaker Picks, we believe that every decision you make should be rewarded. That's why we’ve designed the Balls System—a dynamic scoring structure that keeps your fantasy football experience exciting and competitive. From individual player performances to team results, our Balls System is the perfect way to measure success.
How the Balls System Works
1. Player Performance – Points Based on Real-Life Action
Your fantasy players earn points based on their actual game performance:
| Touchdowns | +6 points |
| Receives/Assists | +4 points |
| Over 60 Minutes Played | +2 points |
| Clean Sheet (Defenders/Goalkeepers) | +4 points |
| Goalkeeper Saves | +1 point for every 3 saves |
| Missed Penalty Kick | -2 points |
| Own Goal | -2 points |
| Yellow Card | -1 point |
| Red Card | -3 points |
2. Team Performance – Team Results Impact Fantasy Scores
The performance of your players' teams matters too:
| Win (Player plays 60+ minutes) | +3 points |
| Draw | +1 point |
| Loss | 0 points |
3. Team Captain – Double the Fun
Selecting the right captain can give you a major edge in your league. Your captain’s total points are doubled, making it a crucial decision each week.
4. Special Achievements – Rewarding the Unforgettable
Big plays deserve big rewards:
| Best Player of the Match | +5 points |
| Game-Winning Goal | +3 points |
| Hat-Trick | +6 bonus points |
| More Than 5 Goalkeeper Saves | +3 points |
| Player Efficiency Rating (7.5–8.0) | +1 point |
| Player Efficiency Rating (8.1–8.5) | +2 points |
| Player Efficiency Rating (8.6+) | +3 points |
5. Penalties for Negative Actions – Mistakes Cost You
It’s not just about big plays; mistakes will cost you:
| Goals Conceded (Goalkeepers/Defenders) | -1 point per goal |
| Penalty Caused | -3 points |
