If you’ve ever wanted to run a rotisserie style baseball league but couldn’t find the time to setup a spreadsheet or a database, Head Office is the software you’ve been waiting for. Maybe you did manage to get a database/spreadsheet working but found too many limitations to make it easy to use. Head Office is the software that makes it easy. Perhaps you found that updating the stats simply uses too much time and takes away from the enjoyment of playing fantasy Baseball. Head Office addresses this short coming as well!

• play standard rotisserie style baseball
• trade, waive, injure, reserve and pick up players easily
• select from up to 14 scoring categories (7 defense, 7 offense)
• easily generate detailed reports in standard 4x4 or 5x5 format
• select your players from NL, AL or any combination of either
• update your whole stat files in under 3 minutes using reasonably priced,
preformated weekly stat files from Quick Stats Service (**)
PLUS
• setup a pool type league where any number of teams can use the same player
• determine two ways to score pools (fantasy or pool style)
• generate text file reports easily
Head Office is designed to take the time consuming task of running a league and make it as easy as possibe. Most operations in Head Office are one click away from the main navigation window.
