San Cirano Fantasy

Mar 2026

fantasy.ciranops.club

A rugby fantasy league for Club San Cirano, played with the club's own players. You build a squad out of the real plantel under two rules — a budget, and a cap on how many players you can take from any one division — and it scores against what those players actually did on the weekend. Over 200 people play it every month.

Press a shirt and the product’s own sheet comes up over the pitch. The club’s real rules and real prices — 100 of budget, fifteen shirts, at most four players from any one division. The plantel is a list of real people, so a pick shows the division it came from rather than a name, and every division is offered for every shirt; the product filters the list to the players who can fill that position.

The rules are the game

Without a cap per division, every squad in the league is the same squad: the best fifteen players at the club, picked by everyone. The budget stops you buying the whole first team and the division cap stops you buying only from it, so a decent squad has to include players from Intermedia and M-23 — and suddenly you are watching a game you had no reason to watch, because you own somebody in it.

What it actually did

It pulled in friends, families and most of the club — people who had never opened a fantasy game and people who do not play rugby at all, following a squad they had assembled themselves. That is the outcome worth reporting, and it is not a technical one: the interesting part of a club fantasy league was never the scoring engine, it was that two hundred people had a reason to look at the Intermedia result on a Sunday night.
