Hello everyone,

I run a dart league. I have a worksheet with players on their teams. Each week I enter the stats. I have stats for averages for the season and per week.

Per week it runs perfectly fine
=IFERROR(AVERAGE($B4:$X4),0)

Here's the average for the season

=AVERAGE(Week1!B69:X69,Week2!B69:X69,Week3!B69:X69,Week4!B4:X4,Week5!B4:X4,Week6!B4:X4,Week7!B4:X4)

As you can see this person has changed teams. I want to make this sheet more dynamic because if this person changes teams again I won't have to change the formula, each week I will have to change this formula and of course all I want to do is enter numbers. Of course once the sheet if perfect, I will hand it off to someone else.

Can anyone suggest something?

Thanks

I assume the average throw of 3 darts is what you want to average
or is it darts to finish - if this opponent does not finish
or is it game wins ie best of 11 won 8 lost 3

I think, it will be much easier for you if you will just use a pivot table for this.

Well it goes like this. We play 6 games in one night. We take each player's 1st scores per game.

So it would be like
Game 1 Game 2
Dan 45 60 100 Dan 45 40 15
Pat 22 45 35 Pat 22 40 40
Dave 60 100 60 Dave 45 45 57

I enter in all scores of the 1st 3 shots per game as the example above. This is why my 1st like is =IFERROR(AVERAGE($B4:$X4),0) which calculates averages for the week and then my season average will change with Week 2.

Let me know if this info helps and thanks for the reply.

as you enter more scores the total will be first 12, first18 automatically divided by 12, 18 etc
formula for ann's average of 49.33
=SUM(E8:Z8)/$D$7
notice it goes right to Z8
as does thecounter cell (D7)

Hi old brewer,

If I understand correctly, your formula only shows how to calculate averages. My question is not about calculating averages but making it more dynamic as in your example, Ann, next week, will be in row 2 instead of 8. Then I need a formula to make sure it calculates averages from week 1 and week 2 and so on.

So taking that example I would need 1 formula that would look for Ann take all the scores in week 1 and week 2 no matter which row their on and put the results in my season summery sheet.

Thanks again.
