I’m designing a website for a kids’ football league. A very small, cheap, no big-back-end or cms website. They want to be able to update it easily, and I’ve found a site they can log into, so I can just edit the code slightly when making the pages, and they can easily just go and log into this site and edit the content in specifically defined areas on each page.

But, every Saturday there are games, of course, and scores for those games; and then the league tables change. the guy whose job it is, currently manually updates all of these in a many-sheeted spreadsheet.

He would like, at the least, to be able to cut and paste bits of his sheet into the relevant places on the site; when doing this normally it will lose all table formatting. Ideally, I would like to be able to put up live spreadsheets, so that they would update automatically when the scores are updated within them, and the leagues would rearrange themselves etc. I don’t know if the latter is possible without a database back end; I’ve seen that there are several products online which it looks like would probably do the former, though I haven’t tested anything yet (and would look for a free one.) but just wondered first if anyone had already done anything similar and could advise.
