You can always schedule a scrimmage for Thursday's (except when you are still in the cup, since cup games are on Thursday.

During the playoffs, scrimmages are automatically scheduled for Saturday for teams that don't have a playoff game. That is why you had the scrimmage last Saturday (April 26) and this upcoming Saturday (May 3).

But teams that are out of the playoffs do not play on Tuesday.

This upcoming weekend is the end of season/start of season. Teams will be moved to their new leagues by promotion/relegation, and the draft results will be announced. Because of all this extra activity, nobody will play next Tuesday (May 6). Thursday (May 8) will be a scrimmage date, and the new league season will start on Saturday (May 10). The first round of the cup will be on the following Thursday (May 15).

I have a scrimmage on the same day and hour (today at 19h30) as my Tiebreaker. Is this normal?

tiebreaker?? I don't think there is a tiebreaker in a 1-game elimination round...

They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.

Actually you don't.
You see, at the end of the season your financial manager will sit with your players and ask them what they want to be payed for the games they will play. After they agree the amount, the financial manager asks the players if it is okay for they to get paid weekly, instead of by game. Luckely your players mostly agree to this, so they calculate the total amount, and then divide it over the weeks of the season, so that every week you pay the same amount to each player, rather than having bigger costs every now and then.
It kind'a works like loans. You get the full capacity of their services, and you pay it off on weekly basis.

So you see, you don't need to pay them for not playing, actually you are paying them for what they already performed, so you should be happy they don't charge intrest!!


Editted: spelling.
