Line 1: |
| A team is the virtual football team one owns and manages in Hattrick. It consists of a number of virtual football [[players]], usually between 20 and 30 (maximum 50). The manager chooses a [[formation]] with 11 of these players for each game, plus 5 substitutes.
| |
|
| |
|
| If the 50-players limit is exceeded, [[training]] is lost for that week. Please take note that the [[coach]] is considered a player, as he may well play (and often does!)
| |
|
| |
| Each player has an individual name and ID, along with its current age, and is made up of assorted [[skills]], [[personality]], [[form]], [[experience]] and [[specialties]]. He'll also have an ideal [[:Category:Player_positions|position]], but you'll need to work that out through experience!
| |
|
| |
| ==Form==
| |
| [[Form]] is one of the most important characteristics for any player, determining how well he is able to use his [[skills]]. You'll note that a good player who is out of form will often be outperformed by a not so good player at the top of his game.
| |
|
| |
| ==Experience==
| |
|
| |
| Some players may not have the greatest abilities, but their knowledge of the game more than makes up for it. Thus, old and experienced players often play much better than their younger, greener colleagues.

| |
| ==Player Specialties==
| |
| '''Some''' of the players in Hattrick have [[specialties]] that differentiate them from other players. A player may have only one specialty, and no more.
| |
|
| |
| Player's specialties are also affected by the weather, for example a Quick player will not play as well as he could in wet and rainy conditions.
| |
| Also players that have Head as their specialty will be better at scoring headers/clearing headers than another player that does not have the Head specialty.
| |
|
| |
| ==Personality==
| |
|
| |
| Finally, a player also has four [[personality]] characteristics, [[leadership]], [[agreeability]], [[honesty]] and [[aggressiveness]].
| |
|
| |
| ==Injury and Suspension==
| |
|
| |
| All this is well and good, but sometimes a player isn't able to play...
| |
|
| |
| For more information, see [[Injury]].
| |
|
| |
| ==Yellow and Red Cards==
| |
|
| |
| Players may get booked or sent off during games. Two bookings during a match will automatically lead to the player being sent off. Bookings and Sending-Offs during '''competitive''' games eventually lead to a suspensions. A player will be suspended for the next (competitive, cup or league) match if he is sent off, or if he has accumulated 3 bookings during a season. This is shown by a red card symbol on the player page. You can also see how many yellow cards have been received so far. At the end of the season all [[cards]] are cleared.
| |
|
| |
| Whilst a player can receive cards during friendly matches, they have no other effects than those seen during the game.
| |
|
| |
| Highly aggressive players will tend to be booked more often than other players. Especially if they're also dishonest or lacking in experience.
| |
|
| |
| Players who are sent off still receive credit for appearing in the match for training purposes; if a player is sent off in a league match, it is not necessary to also play him in the midweek match.
