Registration Opens: June 11, 2025 – If you require a code, it is YPpyFP26
Team Format:
We’re looking for 4 captains to draft their teams from the registered player pool as this season there will be fewer teams, as we are trying to see what the transition to outdoors will look like. As for this season, we only have 2 outdoor courts when running the league outdoors, and 4 indoor courts when running the league indoors.
You may register as a captain or as a free agent.
Captains are responsible for organizing a full lineup each week, maintaining communication with their team and/or Brandon or Daniel. If a player can’t attend, captains must find a substitute (a sub-list will be provided to the captains of the players that have not been initially drafted)
