As I've said before, the reason we brought this idea forward was because of a lack of intent/interest from the current runners of the CPL/FPL to keep those leagues going

Evolutions would be interested in joining this league
and obviously the FCL

as for structure, i like the idea of the captain picks 2 players for each of the main 4 types..

and the division/play off sounds good too

The first idea is my preference. It would be good to be able combine both a league/cup style format, without actually having a seperate league AND cup! My only concern is that what would the teams that do not get into the top 2 actually do while the semis/final being played?

Their season would be over. Those would be the teams (saying we have 2 5 team divisions) that finish 3rd in div 1, are automatically promoted/relegated and finish 4th/5th in div 2

Maybe if you get the league running you could have some stipulations to make clans more even for example:

Seasonal Drafts

Handicapping Players

Extra Points for accomplishments such as a run out, golden break or seven balling

Winner of Golden Cue (if put in) gets a choice to move to whatever team he/she wants.


Just a few ideas feedback?

My opinion (whether you care or not your getting it )

the league should have a higher amount of runners than were in the CPL/FPL, however it needs to be set up in a way which means decisions can be made without arguments. An example being that you have 5 league runners, to oversee general running of the league. This means if one of the runners becomes inactive, one of the others can take over their specific duties. This increases reliability of the league staff.

Defaults, if a league staff member is involved in a match which goes to default, he/she has no say in the default score. Also, defaults should be voted on by a wider group of people (clan captains???) so to ensure a fairer result.

all i can think of right now

Right, written a set of rules.

We have a website but the server it's on is down at the moment due to valentines day specials lol

Will start collecting interest from teams in the next few days and get some friendlies going in conjunction with the FCL

Basic outline of the league

Clan size: Min 8 / Max 14

2 players play each game type, to make an 8v8 fixture, the captains pick who plays what game type.

Each game will be 6 frames, excluding straight which will be 3 frames (each frame worth 2 points).

Each game won is worth 2 points and you get 1 for a draw.

The league will consist of 2 divisions

There will be an 8v8 play-off at the end of the season between the following teams:

1st and 2nd in division 1 for the title.
The 2 immediately above last position in division 1 for relegation.
The 2 immediately below first position in division 2 for promotion.

There will be awards at the end of the season, none based on statistics all will be decided by a vote and there will also be an all-star game. The players involved will be the ones most voted for for best player in that category.

Pretty much, can't lie, that's where the idea came from and credit should go to the snooker guys for coming up with it
