Automated Penalty Charts

Mark Zarb has created charts to accurately represent the various types of penalties, infraction yardage, and enforcement notes to assist with stat keeping for seasons ranging from the late 1950s to modern day.  To prevent an excess of individual season charts, Mark has created three automated files for rapid callup for the following eras:

  • Pre-1974
  • 1974 – 2004
  • Modern Era

Under the Penalties tab in the “Modern Era” spreadsheet, I’ve inserted notes in the Penalty Table section referencing the year the penalty came into effect to assist the replayer. For example, Chop Block (2016), Illegal Blind Side Block (2019), etc.

These charts were designed to work in conjunction with his Penalty innovation. To use without having the applicable season ratings, it’s a simple two-step process:

The below files have been added to the Add-ons section under Mark Zarb:

  1. Bro, thanks for posting!! To be clear this is not an automated version of the APBA penalty charts. Gamebooks for 67, 70, 72, 78, 81, 88, 91, 2004 and 2010 were reviewed and penalties are allocated based on actual frequency.
