TeamNumber of players in the team The minimum number of players on the team is 7. The maximum number is unlimited. However, if you have more than 25 players, you will have to pay a daily fee to the handball association. The fee for each extra player is 5% of the combined salaries of all players. If the number of players drops below 7, you will be dismissed by the team owners. If a team doesn't have at least 5 players available, the match will be forfeit. Overall team rating The overall team rating is one of the most important indicators of the long-term performance of the team. It reflects the popularity amongst the fans and sponsors. After each season the overall team rating is reduced by 30%. The overall team rating grows with good results and all types of matches, except for matches in credit tournaments, have an influence. The overall team rating has a significant influence on attendance and teams with higher rating generally receive better offers from general and media sponsors. Only if you lose in regulation, the overall team rating doesn't increase. The increase of the overall team rating is higher, if a team gets a good result against a strong opponent. Teams without managers There are two kinds of teams without manager. The first kind are teams marked with the † symbol. These teams lost their manager for some reason. The second kind are teams which have the text Team noname in their name. These teams have not had a manager yet. If a team has no manager, usually it can be assigned to a new manager if it's located in the lowest league level. If the number of leagues on the lowest level is less than on the second lowest level, the teams without manager on the second lowest level may also be assigned to new managers. If a team has played at least two seasons with the same manager, it cannot be assigned to another manager regardless of the league level. A team like this will then be replaced by Team noname during the next seasonal calculation if it is located or relegated to a league where teams can be assigned to new managers. Team strength The team strength indicator shows the strength of your line-up in the last league match. The goalkeeping, defense and offense indicators are calculated from the strength of individual players in the given positions and time that they spent in goal, defense or offense. The shooting indicator is calculated from the shooting attribute of players playing in offense. The time that players spent on the offense is taken into account here as well. Manager experience Every manager gains experience automatically by playing the game regularly. For each day that you log into your team you gain one point of manager experience. For three days of inactivity you lose a point. Until you get to 11 points you don't lose points for inactivity. Once you reach this mark you will not drop below it. The number of points that you have determines your level of experience. The higher your level, the more benefits you can enjoy. Warning! Experience is tied to your team and if you lose your team, you will have to start gathering experience from zero. Levels of managers according to experience
