IAFL Team Registration

Post by Kallinn Ynnetrrr »

Ok, let's get this show on the road. Hopefully we'll get a fair number of interested people so I don't have to ghost-manage teams and be boring.

Because part of team creation is the drafting of World Cup players, I'm not asking for a list of players yet, only general team information. Once the World Cup is finished, all unattached players from former and current Gralan World Cup squads will make up the draft pool. The draft order will be determine via a randomized list of the teams' names. Once all players have been drafted, teams will then create players to fill the remaining spots on their teams (players drafted from the world cup squads will be given slightly higher stats than rookie players).

Ok, here's the form to fill out.
Team Name: Full Name
Badge/Logo: Logo of team (Preferably PNG)
Nickname(s): Nicknames of Team
Location: City, Province

Owner Name: Name of the owner of the club (typically your micronational alias)
Manager: Fictional Name of Coach and Nationality
Philosophy: Attacking/Defending/Counter-Attack/Passing style of play etc.

Division: Novatainia or Toketi
Stadium: Stadium Name and Capacity
Preferable Kit Supplier: Nike/Adidas/Puma/Lotto/Diadora/Umbro
Kit Sponsor: Sponsor name and logo.
Colours: Your home team colours.
Examples for logos and sponsor logos can be found in this thread.

In the event that the IAFL doesn't meet its 4 teams per division quota, foreign owners shall be allowed to create teams to fill the gaps. Foreign managers are encouraged to resurrect teams (not already recreated) from the defunct NFF and TIFSoF leagues, listed below.
Toketisk Teams:

Rielrar Reflex
Dekiru Demons
Scoiattoli Stingers
Stardock Wacky Wizards
Dekinai Destroyers
Hamuji Athletic

Novatainian teams:

Bahira FC
Rizactor Rangers
Helenax Rovers
St Nova Strikers
St Nova City
Novatica West
Ridgedon Rams
Novatica United
Feel free to ask questions.

Just wondering whether it would be preferred to retain the names of the old TIFSoF and Novatainian Premier teams, or at least have them based in the original cities, or if this is going to be completely new and different? :)

I imagine some of the older teams will be resurrected (such as Rielrar Reflex above), but probably at least 1 new one will pop up. We'll see how it goes, if there aren't at least 8 teams, I'll try to fill in with preexisting teams.

I'm gonna ask foreigners to hold off on registering a team until I have an idea how many Gralan citizens are interested in making teams so we don't have one division fill up too fast and force, say, Toketin to make teams in Novatainia or viseversa.

Ah okay. Also, just for information, Toketi has been allocated three spots in the AEFA Champions League, and Novatainia has two spots. I am planning to run the Champions League concurrently with the leagues in most nations, that is, from October to May. This means that you need to sort out what three teams will enter for Toketi and what teams will enter for Novatainia. Two Tokish teams and one Novatainian team will enter in the second qualifying round, while one Tokish and one Novatainian team will be directly qualified for the group stage.

*whistles* That's more than half the league right there. I have no idea how I'll determine what teams go. Might end up being a lottery unless I could maybe go for straight elimination tournament in the preseason.

Also, teams from defunct leagues for reference:
Toketisk Teams:

Rielrar Reflex
Dekiru Demons
Scoiattoli Stingers
Stardock Wacky Wizards
Dekinai Destroyers
Hamuji Athletic

Novatainian teams:

Bahira FC
Rizactor Rangers
Helenax Rovers
St Nova Strikers
St Nova City
Novatica West
Ridgedon Rams
Novatica United
Might as well put those in the OP

Antica and Babkha also have three spots each, so for Antica, that's 3/8ths of the league. That's to compensate for not having a second international tournament or cup. We just have the Champions League.

Ah, I see. I'll see what I can get put together for the decisions. I should have some system set-up before the end of the World Cup, and once the draft and team creation is finished I should be able to jump right into it.

Yah. For this first Champions League season I don't really care how the teams are selected. Tournament, drawing of lots, dictatorial decision, whatever.

I'll manage a Novatainian team! (I'll get to the form when I have more time)

How much time do I have to get this in? I'm creating a team for Anebati (the Anebati Anvils), and a deadline would probably help progress.

Nevermind, I just finished.
Team Name: Anebati Football Club
Badge/Logo: Click Here (The background of that is, or should I say, should be, transparent, so it can be posted on colored pages without looking shabby.)
Nickname(s): Anebati Anvils
Location: Anebati, Ostshon Kagan, Toketi

Owner Name: Gerk (and after his death, Gerk’s estate)
Manager: Tordon Hargriff, Toketi (Anebati)
Philosophy: Very reliant on teamwork, both on offense and defense, and they will usually wait until an opportune moment to make a driving attack.

Division: Toketi
Stadium: Anebati Football Pitch, available bleacher seating for 1000, standing room for a few thousand more.
Preferable Kit Supplier: They make their own equipment, but, for regulation matches they are not opposed to using more standard gear for the sake of the rules.
Kit Sponsor: A number of local shops pitch in to help make/pay for the equipment, but none more so than Ian’s Smithy, run by Ian Fortimore. Here is a picture of the sign that hangs outside Ian’s shop.
Colours: The team wears off-white woven wool jerseys and shorts, with their numbers stitched on in blue. A second set of jerseys, which will be dyed blue, are currently in production, expected to be ready for the season. Because of the difficulty (and need to maintain) the stitching, the team uses mostly simple numbers.
I don't know how you want to handle drafting players into this team, my original thought was that they should all be native Anebatins, it would make more sense for their entrance into the league, and then in future seasons, maybe outside players might want to join them.

The issue is that players drafted from the world cup squads are going to be the more talented than the spaces you fill yourself. I mean, I guess you can opt out of the draft, but that probably wouldn't do you any good outside of being local. Or you can just say that some of the players you draft happen to be Anebati citizens, that would probably work too (except their names wouldn't be particularly Anebati, I guess)

Ok, so, slow start here, I'll try to get the draft started tomorrow.

And since I only have a few people with teams so far, I guess I'll go ahead and open up the league to foreign owners and managers, but I'm gonna at least reserve one spot on the Novatainia side for whatever Andreas wants to do about it.

Considering I was planning on the manager/coach having been, backstorywise, a former professional, that could work. And it's not like Anebatins would have significantly different names than the rest of the country, anyway, they use the same language.

Back in the day, I managed Hamuji Athletic and St Nova Strikers. Which one do I resurrect? :o

St Nova Strikers, definitely!

Here's mine. If there aren't enough other teams I'd also like to run a MANA one, but I'll start with this one as it makes more sense for them to take players from the draft.
Team Name: VBNT (Very Big Novatainian Team)
Badge/Logo: In png and gif (transparency, yay!)
Nickname(s): Sky Pirates
Location: Novatica, with training facilities in the Vraillan Isles

Owner Name: Manuel
Manager: Roger Norrington
Philosophy: Attack like pirates, defend like lawyers, and always have the very best money can buy.

Division: Novatainia
Stadium: VBNC Stadium (previously the Bank Nova Stadium), Novatica, 61500
Preferable Kit Supplier: Umbro
Kit Sponsor: :VBNC:
Colours: Blue and Black, with Red numbers.
I'll wait to see how the draft works before working out players.

You've tempted me, Andreas, and it'll equal-out the number of teams in each country.
Team Name: St Nova Strikers
Badge/Logo: Will make one
Nickname(s): Strikers
Location: St Nova's, Kingsland

Owner Name: Craitman
Manager: Benjamin Peeters, Novatainian
Philosophy: Counter-attacking, long ball, pressing

Division: Novatainia
Stadium: St Nova City Stadium (25,000)
Preferable Kit Supplier: Puma
Kit Sponsor: Synco Paints (will make logo)
Colours: Can't remember the originals! Blue and white stripes sounds good to me though.

Ok, so I'm not sure when I'll get the chance to organize more of this, school is killer right now (but at least I know when I'll be out now). I'll try to get the draft up soon, and I should be able to do simple game simulations (pretty much just a quick report, score, scorers and times, bookings and times, possession, etc.) soon enough and often enough to make a season out of it, but it won't get up to par with most other leagues until next season (fall 2012 will be my last term, and by my planning, will be a joke academically).

Thus, I might also keep to 4-6 teams this season in a unified division for simplicity's sake. Bear with me here.

Don't bust yourself over this, we're all busier than we used to be, I think.
