Fantasy Sport, an interactive virtual competition where individuals manage their own teams, compete with other fantasy owners and lead their teams to the top of the points table is a fast growing craze among sports lovers. Although around 80% of the fantasy sport owners are a part of Fantasy Soccer, Fantasy sports extends to other games like cricket, baseball, basketball, golf and many others.
The Fantasy Sports Trade Association was formed in 1999 to represent the growing industry. The seminal moment for the growth of fantasy sports was the rise of the Internet in the mid-1990s. With the use of Internet, the various players’ statistics could be compiled and made available online for the fantasy owners. This virtual competition is a boost for sport fans to prove their team’s worth and manage them effectively to victory.
