Winky's Futsal League - Season 2!

[Winky]

Welcome to Winky's Futsal League - Season 2!
 

If you are wondering when WFL Season 1 was, it was played internationally with the Asian teams back in May/June with a select number of players. It was run purely through discord and on Singapore servers which most of you did not have a good connection to. I am changing that this season by bringing it to Australia!

Here's what you need to know if you are interested in playing in Season 2:

I want to be a captain - what do I do?
There are 6 captain slots, so message me anywhere (discord, this thread or PM me) if you are interested in captaining a team.
The league is PYOT (pick your own team) - so make sure you have at least 3 players before requesting to start a new team.
Please confirm with your players and also mention them when you let me know (make sure they join the discord server).
Finally, prepare a good quality logo!

What is the league format?
The league will be double round robin (3 points for win, 1 for draw, 0 for lose), with single elimination finals for the top 6 teams.
There will be 8 teams in total with a maximum of 6 per team (1 captain, 2 main players, 3 substitutes).
There are no app limits for individual players, but failure to have 3 players show up will result in a forfeit.

What is the game format?
This is a 3 vs 3 league (unlike season 1 which was 4v4).
Games will be 2 halves, 5 minutes per half - scores from both halves will be aggregated to get the final match score.
There is a mercy rule of 10 goal difference in total which will immediately end the game.
There is a maximum allowed substitutes of 2 per match per team.

What map will we play on?
Please note this is a FUTSAL league - the map can be downloaded from here:
https://hbanz.org/forum/maps.php - search for "WFL S2 - Big".

When will we play?
Games will be some time on Saturday night, but the time is not yet confirmed.
I would ask players in general to let me know which 2 hours during Saturdays they prefer to play.

When will the league matches start?
The league will start whenever 8 teams are ready - I am hoping this to be finalized within a couple of weeks at most.

I want to join as a player but don't know any captains - what do I do?
Join the discord below and post in the "looking-for-team" channel.

Is there a discord server for WFL?
Yes - players are requested to join as this is where league matters will be communicated: https://discord.gg/ffNSwEX98q

Do I need help?
I may be able to use a few people who are willing to assist with management/stats. Let me know if interested.

And finally, I have created a highlights reel for Season 1 which hopefully will encourage some of you to sign up:



Thanks!
