Battrick Tournament Host
As battrick has entered a time of change, I?ve been thinking that so do we. With the shift of an 18 week season to a 16 week long one, things are more compact and there?s a new schedule for us all to adapt to.
I have an idea to change the league, this change makes it less intense for teams to compete week-in, week-out, this makes managing the whole season easier. With a 16 week season the cup final is in week 10, now as good as we like to think we are no-one is getting there soon, not yet anyway
So by approximately week 8 all the PC teams should be out the Cup. That leaves 8 weeks of league matches, just as the season hots up, personally 4 games with no home and away twice just doesn?t do it for me anymore, nor will 4 games home and away.
My idea is that we do a ladder incorporating all the teams we currently have and those in the waiting list. It won?t be a huge lump of 40 odd teams, but two divisions, the top division being the best teams and the bottom the future good teams. To make it interesting the rankings will be inverted so the good teams will have to work their way to the top and the lesser guys get a chance to hold their own. The team at the top of the ladder at the end of the season is crowned champ and the bottom two take the plunge.
Rules are simple, you can?t challenge a team more than 3 places above you. If you challenge a team higher than you, you go up to their spot and they drop below you, if you challenge a team below you, positions are unchanged. Similarly this helps with activity as organisers and teams won?t have to chase ?X? for their challenge.
What do you reckon lads, it?s your choice?
