Player B should probably have (with director's permission) split the consolation prizes and the club points. However, as often happens in these kinds of situations, I suspect BOTH players could have shown a bit better behavior.

Actually, "friendly" game or not, I think this is an example of why following the rules strictly actually makes the competition proceed more smoothly in the long run.
