After the end of the EURO-Qualifaying we have time for something more interesting:

The Battle of the British Isles!

We wanna make a small tournament for the teams from England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland.
Every team plays against every other team. The team, which is ranked lower has the homecourt-advanted. It looks like all the teams wanted to play. Probably we start next week?!

Could all the four managers post here, if their teams want to play, and if the rules should be like I posted it here!? (If, all the 4 teams are in, I would make a timetable)

Let's do it! I'm totally up for it...

Should we start this wk or next? Lots of team will have sorted the scrimmages already by now... Personally I've got a few scrimmage requests waiting for an answer...

I looked at the timetable of Ireland, they allready have a Srimmage this week. So we have to wait for 15th of February.

@Tortuga ... if you want, we can make a "Pre-Battle-Game" this week!?

Than the real Battle starts at 15th

Of course, we could play on neutral court, too. (I think for 6 games, the break is to short)

Ireland is in. :)

As was mentioned, I already have a scrimmage set up for this coming week against New Zealand. After that, I have open slots, so would be happy to play all three of you! :)

Looks like it's on then.

See you all on the 22nd, and you on the 15th for that warm up S.Bock.


Edit; Anyone know if the U21 schedule would allow them to get in on this also?

Could we make a quick vote?

Do you wanna play on neutral court? or with homecourt-advantage?

Is neutral court even possible?

(Note: I've scheduled a grand total of 1 scrimmage for the national team, so I may be mistaken, but I don't remember seeing an option for neutral court.)
