Just double-checked (guess I should have done that earlier ) and there's no way to award half SPPs and still track Comp, TDs etc in friendlies, so what we'll have to do is the coach makes a note of any SPP a player gains during a friendly game and I'll add the via the admin tools.
As a side note, friendlies do not have to be against other league teams, they can be against any team in the team database. Al, if you want to play someone local to you (I'll trust you to be honest) that can happen, I'll just count it as a game vs the Spare coach. Nor do they have to be against a league coach, so if someone wanted to play a game vs Gary or Tom (for example) that can happen to.
