Title: Competition Name?
Post by: PowerBug on January 19, 2015, 04:04:50 PM
I have no idea, who here with a creative brain has some ideas?

Also need names for 8 teams, one for each state/territory in the country :)

Bags North Queensland  :P

If we're doing line ups of 7, we could call it VIIs or Super 7s or something. Creative  ::)

Not too sure on a competition name, but I like having animals for the state names.

I'd like to have Victoria if possible.

If we're not fielding 11 players what the point of calling it XIs? Would call it Australia 'Whatever number we're doing'.

Or just name it "Super (Whatever we field)"

Oi, no dibsing teams yet :P Yeah well the thought was 6 for Shield and Cup but 8 for BBL. Which throws out a number name haha.

Decent names PK, but you have the states for 7 of them them you have Canberra for the last one, got to be consistent. :)

Just change Canberra to ACT and it works.
