Description

As with other games in the The Avalon Hill Game Co sports Strategy series, each player has an identical generic team to coach through a game. Included are a set of campaign game counters to allow players to draft unique teams. Player counters have 5 performance ratings which are used to determine shooting and passing outcomes.
You make play by play decisions which are resolved by cross-referencing offensive and defensive choices on a matrix.
As coach you make decisions about line up, defensive match-ups, time outs etc.
A full (four quarter) game would take 2+ hours.
