CricketStar - Enter / Modify Match Results

 

Overview

 

Entering match results are done in screens that are in divided in tabs design to mimic the layout, look and feel of the score book.  Users will enter as much or as little information as is in their scorebook or their match card.  The more information captured and entered from the score sheets the more meaningful and detail reports can be displayed. The onus is on the individuals to enter the data. Please spend the small amount of time per game required to do a proper and complete entry. In addition, timely entry of the results is vital to ensure that visitors to the web site are receiving the most up to date, timely and complete information.

 

It is the responsibility of the winning captain to ensure that both the stats sheet and the online results are complete. However, if the home team does not input the information then the away team also has access to enter the results.

 

Once filled in, the stats sheet is the property of the league and the winning captain is responsible for faxing the stats sheet into the league statistician. If the stats sheets are sent in with incomplete or missing key data then the league statistician with not have enough information to validate entry by the clubs. Therefore, the results will not be approved and the statistical reports for your players will not be updated. The data entered in these screens, once approved by the league, automatically updates several other reports such as League Standings for all divisions and all statistical reports.

 

Only the Game Summary Report and Match Review will display results that are not yet approved by the league.

Validation Rules

To ensure that the data entered is correct there are several validation rules built in.  Violations of some of these rules are visible right away as soon as the conditions exist. These violations are denoted with the colours Red and Yellow:

?         Red means that the error will prevent the results from being approved by the league until it is fixed. 

?         Yellow means you have an error but it will not prevent the result from being approved.

 

Red denotes the critical errors that compromises the integrity of the batting and bowling statistical figures, while yellow denotes the lesser but equally important stats such # of catches, partnerships etc.

 

The information entered must be consistent. For example, the batting and bowling figures are validated against the information entered on the summary tab.

 

There is also a final validation that will be done by the League Statistician. This feature is enabled by clicking on the validate button on the Score Summary tab. Once all the violations are cleared, the match details can be approved by the League Statistician.

 

There are three statuses available for each result

?         Incomplete (Scores are still being entered by the Clubs)

?         Unofficial (clubs has finish entering the scores and is waiting for the league to approve the results)

?         Approved (Match details are approved and locked by the League Statistician)
