Many have already joined but I'm keen to get a full field of 32 Youth Teams in the FF Youth Knockout. Feel free to enter your team and / or affiliate regardless of their current rating.

With the team I'll be fielding I don't think I really deserve the number 1 seed haha
Title: Re: FF Youth Knockout
Post by: PowerBug on December 13, 2014, 11:33:12 PM
The first day will be before the update? Should make it a rule that the players have to be 18 and below for the first match. As in it's next season's team we field.

We can get kicked out together Daz <3.

Probably only way to keep it entirely FF though so I understand that, rather than adding like 10 randoms to fill the league.

i don't mind my youths are not that great anyhow

Post by: Spinking on December 14, 2014, 07:23:55 PM
Yeah, very sorry lads. I tried to fill the league with randoms but the last few applicants were quite high rating and I didn't want to run the risk of them knocking off our teams. Ended up with 30 teams, but the deadline came and it automatically kicked out the last 14 entrants (Think about 5-6 of these were FF teams). If I'd had a choice I would have booted a few affiliates so you guys got in, but didn't get the option...  :P

Again, very sorry! Only saving grace is we have only FF teams which I prefer. Will start another Youth Comp after this one and hope to get everyone involved!

Title: Re: FF Youth Knockout
Post by: JBs-Hawks on December 18, 2014, 06:26:12 PM
Im setting both my teams as u18s teams so whoever wins has the best shot at winning the lot :P

Definitely agree it should be U18 for round 1. Is there anyone who can't field a full team without playing 19YOs?

Apologies - this was poorly planned. Didn't event think EOS when choosing dates.

I can't field a full team if U19

Playing against Nails affiliate tonight. A big match for both sides. Both sides will be rating close to 100k. I think 1 of these sides will make the final

Didn't set orders, lucky my default orders are solid.

Such a shame the 2 favourites (IMO) have to play each other this week. Valk vs. myself. What a rip off getting stuck same side of the draw :(

Totally forgot about this, this week and didn't set orders for the final game. Didn't even remember to watch it.

Been on Holiday since Wednesday so sorta forgot everything FTP related as well as bidding on several players I wanted.

Real thriller too!

End of over 39 (8 runs) - New Jersey Devils(265-8). 11 runs required from 1 overs. RR 6.79 RRR 11.00
M. Areef 44 (22b), L. Grimes 4 (5b), G. Moroney (lfs) 8-0-68-3

Won by 1 wicket :)
