Database Design Project

Oracle Baseball League Store Database

Project Scenario:

You are a small consulting company specializing in database development. You have just been awarded the contract to
develop a data model for a database application system for a small retail store called Oracle Baseball League (OBL).

The Oracle Baseball League store serves the entire surrounding community selling baseball kit. The OBL has two types of
customer, there are individuals who purchase items like balls, cleats, gloves, shirts, screen printed t-shirts, and shorts.
Additionally customers can represent a team when they purchase uniforms and equipment on behalf of the team.

Teams and individual customers are free to purchase any item from the inventory list, but teams get a discount on the
list price depending on the number of players. When a customer places an order we record the order items for that
order in our database.

OBL has a team of three sales representatives that officially only call on teams but have been known to handle individual
customer complaints.
