This forum is specifically set aside for the organisation of Supercoach Leagues.

Foxy_dal is the official organiser of BigFooty SC Leagues, if you wish to join a BigFooty SC League, please indicate your interest HERE.

It is hoped that discussion in this forum will be limited to topics / aspects of your specific SC league. Discussion should take place here - with the bulk of general SC discussion continuing in the main SC Board.

I also encourage the planning of future SC league activity beyond the current year.

On behalf of the bigwigs here at BigFooty I have encouraged the use of the BigFooty name to be used in SC leagues. I appealed to them by describing all the free advertising that this site will gain if we are top 10 in the league comp - will give us a very strong case for SUBSTANTIAL sponsorship from the bosses here.

Inspired by the genius of the EliteDre@mTe@mers whom I wish to acknowledge for their part in the evolution of playing Dream Team / Supercoach.

I wanted to set up a tiered system of leagues, with the best players in the top league. At the end of each year there can be promotions and demotions based on performance during the year.

I suggested a tiered set of names like:

BigFooty Gurus ~ EDT 1
BF Brainiacs ~ EDT 2
BF Coaches = next level
BF Players = next level
BF Novices = next level
BF Drongos = lowest level

The beauty of this approach is that players are in a league with others of similar ability, making it more competitive, and possibly inspiring better performance from all.

Secondly they have a forum with which to update weekly scores, compare trading successes and generally taunt, praise, chat and cogitate over.

I think we could get enough interest to fill several leagues.

If we think long term - we may establish a tradition that will become our legacy to BigFooty posters in years to come.

BigFooty T shirts and free memberships are on offer, but if a league were to win the comp bearing the BigFooty moniker then they could be in for a more substantial prize


Whilst it may take longer to achieve than Dream Team, I really like the idea of eventually having a Supercoach team from each club.

That would require 256 players already - not counting the elite squad/s.

That's a big ask but not impossible. In order to make it happen we would need a "Captain" from each club who would be responsible for recruiting and maintaining the squad.

They could receive two years BF membership for each year of Captaining their squad and their name recorded in the hall of fame.

How does this sound?

"Inaugural [insert club] Club Captain of the BigFooty Supercoach Competition - 2008."

Hall of Fame

2008 [insert club] - Winner - BigFooty Supercoach Competition. Captain - [insert poster's name]

The winning club might get $400 towards their club's player sponsorship project.

Other thoughts that are in the pipeline:

? A perpetual trophy and free BF memberships and other worthwhile prizes for the participants.
? Hall of fame to commemorate their achievements.
? more active moderation
 
Please note that you do not have to be in a BigFooty league to use this forum as your discussion room.

I want each league to have a "Home thread" where all announcements and messages can be found with ease. This is not to say that you cannot open other threads, but I don't want frivolous usage of this board. It is not to be cluttered up with "Who should I choose" threads or polls - this sort of posting can be made in the Supercoach forum.

Someone from your league might be conscienscious enough to do a weekly table outling performances and cumulative totals for bragging rights.

If you have some communication that you want to keep private please use PM's, you can select multiple recipients saving you having to retype stuff over.
 
In 2009 BigFooty will begin a competition which will become an annual event.

Each BigFooty Club Board will provide a Dream Team League and a Supercoach League and both will compete for perpetual trophies.

The winners of these competitions will receive a generous monetary reward towards a Player Sponsorship for the following season.

Recruiting BigFooty Club Board League players who played in BigFooty leagues this year does put club selectors in good stead for a good performance next year. This is because the guys in our leagues this year will learn a lot from the hit out and be stronger next year. Also we (as members of club board selection committees) will be confident of their performance and their committment to the effort for the entire season. Most players who have participated in BigFooty Leagues this year should be considered ahead of outsiders because they have the score on the board (whereas outsiders might say they were 233rd last year but may not have any evidence to back it up). Also many club boards will end up having enough players for more than one league - and they can set up a system of promotion / demotion for their leagues based on their own club preferences.

Only one League per Club Board can compete for the Perpetual Trophy, but having several leagues can set up your clubs future prospects and provide much entertaining banter and interest.

Seems very club board orientated. Still divisions not based on clubs supported yes?

This BigFooty Club Board innovation is on top of the (non-aligned) Supercoach league and Dream Team league competitions - which will be absolutely MASSIVE.
