Hey guys! Is someone of you running for U21-NT elections?

If not I would like to try. I am going to have more free time this year and I think it would be nice that is one of us winning and not someone from abroad.

I know I'm one of the yougest playing here, but it will be a pleasure. Let me know what do you think about it.
;)

Age isn't important. Getting to the EBBL in such a short time (compared to slow people like me) and having had players on the u21 team, and good players at that (I remember them) is much more important.

Your first 7 weeks will be highly profitable, get your wins in early because as the season goes on it gets harder. Likewise you’ll probably have to choose between cup and league soon and at this stage it’s a no brainier, fight to stay in the league.

Pick your battles. You can't try hard in every game so only really do so when you have a good chance of winning. Be aware of which teams you're fighting with. Which is really the other teams who are fighting to avoid relegating.

I also agree with Vecx. League is all important. Forget the Cup as soon as it gets too hard.

Also, check your arena pricing after every game. Money is so important.

Cheers fellas.

No doubts this season will be biggest challenge so far.

How do you cope with training, especially with youngsters?

Train youngsters in the cup and in league games you've decided are too difficult to try and win. The weeks you don't have training slots available can always be used to improve stamina or free throws.

Also, accept you may have to focus efforts on fewer trainees than before, if you want to stay up.

Edit: once you are established in the EBBL, you may be able to get away with playing a 22 or 23 yr old trainee in a competitive game.
