Sports manager template
You do not play the match. You pick a side, set one tactic, and watch a result you can argue with. Football Manager 2024 (Sports Interactive, 2023) is a season of those arguments. Out of the Park Baseball 25 (Out of the Park Developments, 2024) is the lineup. Motorsport Manager (Playsport Games, 2016) is the pit. There is no manager page in the maker list. One squad, one match, one decision. A match you control with a stick has left the template.

What makes a sports manager
Sports manager: you run a team: signings, tactics and finances.
The games that set the standard are Football Manager 2024 (Sports Interactive, 2023), Out of the Park Baseball 25 (Out of the Park Developments, 2024) and Motorsport Manager (Playsport Games, 2016).
What the template starts with
The sports manager template starts with one squad, one match and one tactic choice. That is the smallest version of the loop that defines the genre: pick the team, set tactics, watch, adjust.
What to change first
Change one instruction, play the match, and see the result move. If it does not, the engine is ignoring you and the tactic screen is a costume.
2D or 3D
The sports manager template starts in 2D.
