Short and cited
Captain guides
A small set of notes drawn from pages that could be read for this draft. Nothing here is padded out to look like a library, and nothing is presented as legal advice.
Money on the team
The captain who asked about getting hosed
A public post from a would-be captain who expected to take care of payments and wanted to know the financial exposure.
League registration
Four registration setups, not one team price
OpenSports separates captain-pays-in-full, a fixed per-player price, a custom split, and free agents.
Fair splits
Goalie and part-time amounts are assigned, not assumed
OpenSports custom split lets a captain invoice a goalie or part-time player for less. The dollar figures in the guide are an illustration.
League registration
A fixed league price is not a private discount
On OpenSports, a fixed split is one price set by the organizer. A custom split is where the captain assigns different amounts.
Recordkeeping
When the money collected does not match the fee
OpenSports describes overpay, a missed deadline, and a refund the captain then has to cover. This ledger shows the same gaps as credits and unpaid balances.

How this calculator rounds
Money is whole cents. Shares use the largest-remainder method so the assigned cents add up to the fee exactly.
