Half-court basketball coach allows you to manage a team, set rosters, get allocated to one of five divisions and then watch your team play a season of ten games.

This is coach mode and only coach mode. A type of basketball simulation. Here is what you can expect (some features are TBD or WIP):

- a roster management game where you need to draft players into your roster.

- watch your team play against other teams. Learn your teams strengths and weakness.

- real players can control one or more teams or let most teams - or all teams!! - be controlled by bots.

- off-line mode allows a host to share game files for other players to participate off-line.

- host and players exchange files via email etc so they can play off-line in their own time in their own way.

- watch and re-watch every game in replay mode. No need to view a game live. Every game is shared offline so players can watch anytime that is convenient. Engage with your friends without being on line or forced to watch live streams.

- every player has different skills and abilities. Can you put the right roster together and succeed?

-  stats, stats and more stats. Player stats. Team stats. Season stats. Lots of stats! (TBD)

- play against 29 other teams (same as NBA). Learn names and players and get to know the super stars.

- 5 divisions in promotion/relegation format. Win one division and progress to the next!

- Cosy 6 team divisions with "home" and "away" games. Small enough to really form a grudge against a team.

-  Fast sim one game or one week or one season or you can sim just the bot games. (WIP)

- 5 player teams in a half-court format keeps the action moving.

- More features and depth to be announced later.
