the spotter and the other actually entering the stats.
1. Go to File > Open Game.
2. Select the Season and Play-by-Play (Pbp) game, and click OK.
Note: In Play-by-Play mode, you can use the [Space Bar] to start
and stop the game clock.
Entering Starters
Before beginning the game, the players/positions for each team should
be assigned.
1. Click the Subs
tab, and the
Starters window
will appear.
2. Enter the starters
for each team by
either typing
each number in
the number (#)
column or
selecting each
player from the
drop down menu.
Note: It is not necessary to set the position for every player, but
the screen will not close unless a goalie is selected for each team.
3. You can use this same process for making substitutions to the
starters later in the game.
