Three categories and nothing in them
The league keeps a statistics page with All Averages, All Totals and Season Records on it. Every one of them is empty. The page says so itself: no player statistics have been recorded.
That is a league doing more work than most, because the shelf is built and labeled and waiting. What is missing is the part nobody has time for, which is somebody typing a scorebook into a form on a Sunday night. Scoring on High Cheese produces the averages, the totals and the season records as a byproduct of the game being scored at the field, so the categories fill themselves.
