League Play in 2005
Permalink  

Too long have we had to sit through tournaments that have not lived up to expectations, and have failed bring the sport to the position it deserves.

An alternative is here, something that is designed not to replace current tournaments, but to offer something different to those who want to fix some of their problems.

For more information, you can check out the league's web page. Before you do so, make sure you pick up FIREFOX, the only browser that should be allowed on the internet.

thats a great idea CJ.  Just exactly what is needed, now lets just hope that people help to keep this thing going.  Is it going to be Xball style game or something else that you guys have come up with? 


One quick question....whats with not allowing AM or higher classed players to play?  I don't get that rule at all.  I mean you are still cutting out a few people who just get to sit there and watch now?  I'm just worried about this, cause if I were to ever come back to manitoba to visit I would love to jump in on one of these games but I can't cause of the rules that are in place now.  anyways, good luck with this guys.  later.

It will be similar to XBALL, but no exactly the same.

The reason we don't want AM or higher players is to encourage younger, newer teams to come out and play, because one thing we have been told by players is commonly the "I would have played, but we don't want to play AM players."

It may just be an excuse, but we thought we would restrict AM players in this inaugural year, and if it does well we can add a higher division, or an open division and try to get more prizes or something else.

If you were to come out, don't forget you could always help pit crew or coach a team that would gladly benefit from your experience and whatnot.
