    Baseball League Database

    hi,

    i'm a relative newbie to Access and databases in general, so please bear with me.

    i'm trying to build a database that will keep track of Little League Baseball data. i've created the table for the Teams - that was pretty straightforward.

    i'm now trying to design a table that will keep track of game scores and the resulting wins and losses for each team. this is what i have so far in terms of fields:

    ////////////////
    GameID
    Date
    HomeTeamID
    AwayTeamID
    HomeTeamScore
    AwayTeamScore
    ///////////////

    is this all i need? what's the methodology of assigning Wins and Losses for the teams? are there other fields that i can add that will make reporting data easier? ultimately, i'm looking to summarize Wins and Losses in some type of report or query in this fashion:

    Team Name Wins Losses Ties
    ----------- ----- ------ -----
    Panthers 2 0 0
    Tigers 0 2 0



    etc...

    thanks in advance.

    so i got to thinking - should i add a couple of additional fields:

    WinningTeamID
    LosingTeamID

    that way, i would have to do less programming/coding when it came to reporting wins and losses? i realize this may not be the cleanest and leanest way to do it, but since i don't have a lot of experience programming...

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
