    Really not sure what to call this topic.

    My site has been migrated over to EE2, I have a dilema at the moment and hopefully some of you folks can help me figure out what would be the best way to tackle it.

    I will try and explain this as best as possible and hopefully it will make some sense.

    On my previous site I had users that where able to update their own league information and club information.  For leagues this would be mostly weekly fixtures and results.  For the Clubs, it would be information like Manager, players, match reports and team sheets for the league matches that the league admins would publish.

    At the moment I have several SAEF’s that allow publishing and editing of fixtures for leagues fixtures are published to the fixtures Channel and each fixture will be added to a category.

    I want to be able to limit the league categories that a user can publish to.

    The Club admins will edit information on their clubs and teams, both are separate channels. They have the ability to add match reports but at present this is for every team.  The can edit information on their club but again they can do this for all clubs.

    I want to limit them to edit the information and entries for just their team/club.

    I have been talking to a few people and I am not sure if there is a 3rd party addon that will help so I thought I would ask here.

    If there is no plugin that will help have you folk any ideas the best way to do it.  One that I have been checking out would be separate groups, but for the leagues this will be 19 groups.  If I add Clubs to that then this will be a few hundred.

    Many Thanks
