level 4 trainer
i'd keep arena prices the same until you see where you can raise them. I think you can halfway through the season.
promote whenever you can, you get more income...but if you expand your arena you will increase your income as well

personally i am 21-1 in reagular season and my prices and capacity looks like this:

Bleachers : 6500 (Current Price: $10) (Price as of 15/01/2011: $10)
Lower Tier : 600 (Current Price: $35) (Price as of 15/01/2011: $40)
Courtside Seats : 100 (Current Price: $135) (Price as of 15/01/2011: $135)
Luxury Boxes : 10 (Current Price: $500) (Price as of 15/01/2011: $600)
Total Capacity : 7210
Season Ticket Holders: 679 (As of the beginning of the season)

mostly i fill 86-100% of the arena

and yep lvl 4 trainer is enough people saying its only 7.5% worsier than lvl 7

at first you should get rid of players you dont need and buy/draft some trainees 3-6 guards or forwards, depending if you plan to train them in 1or 2 pozitions.

by the way you lucky baby. you already have like 2 6+k centers. when i started the highest paid player was 3.7k pg 30 years old with atrocious outside defence::(

Well he bought those players so i wouldn't call it luck.

Be ruthless with your roster.

If you are single position training guards then you need 3 guys who will be trained at PG for the next season.

3

Then you need one decent player at each of SG, SF, PF and C. Wages of $5,000 -$10,000.

+4 = 7

You need two competent backups, one big one small, wages of around $4,000-$6,000.

+2 = 9

It is useful to have a really cheap scrimmage dummy. You could keep your worst draftee.

+1 = 10

That is all you really need. If you want to have a go at the cup (hard for a new team) you will need another decent big and small player who can pay for themselves with some cup wins.

If you are doing two position training you may need one or two more but it is possible to rotate players when they arent training through the SF position and still have a roster of 10 - if you are careful and have the right guys.

But a small lean roster is essential for a new team. I wish someone had told me. I was typically 16-20 players.

For staff you want a level 4 trainer (you can get them very cheap - less than $20,000 salary for less than $20,000 bid, try to keep the salary low as possible) and level 1 doctor and PR guy.

oh no I didnt start off with them, I just bought C's and PF's that are already good, cuz Im gonna be training Guards

thank you, and I will be doing 1 pos. training except for js/jr ofcourse but i have my decent players 5k-10k. My Sg's I bought with 8 OD and like level 6 and 7 for other main skills, Cuz I dont think I'll be training them OD unless i see that I need them, Thank You very much!

well my fault then:( i am verry unconcentrated these(always) days:p

to get back back to your question:

I would raise the bleachers maybe to 11 or 12, and the vip seats to 1400(and if you have money left buy 1 or 2 of them, it is a good investment at the beginning). The rest could stay the same for the beginning of the enxt season.

Thank you I'll try to make the luxury boxes soon
