Hey hey, Winter League players (or should I say pretty much all of BPV )!
Thank you for signing up, letās get this winter thing going
Quick update: league games are possible during every session beginning on monday, december 2nd.
As Iām the one responsible for keeping track, please send all the dates and game stats to me if Iām not present at the court.
To address some important questions regarding fairness such as
I would like to clarify a setup that should work (I think): Since almost everyone is participating, I donāt think there will be any concerns about declaring league games spontaneously. However, the number of games played by each participant should be distributed equally during one session, in a way that everyone present (counting the official playing time from beginning to end!) gets an equal amount of games.
I understand the point that it would be easier to balance the number of games played by fixing a number of total games or setting up specific dates for league games.
BUT: the whole point of the WINTER LEAGUE is to motivate people to come to the court, no matter what , and I think this setup is a good way to get there.
Similar to normal pickup shuffles: 6-18 players ā big shuffle with added mini shuffle (the players shuffled in with the mini shuffle count their games as real league games); >18 playersā>
Please write your opinions, objections, etc. I will try to take all concerns into account.
Canāt wait to get started!!
PS: Trophyās in the makingā¦
game stats per player: 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, # of goals scored, # of goals against, # of games played.
