13-8? Hopefully its just early days for UNC and they will pick it up as the season comes along, They looked strong in pre season.

Thankfully with a 7-1 win rate for UVA vs Drexel im feeling hopeful that my D will make a few points today

We doing this again?

[UKLaxfan]

Post HERE: if you want to take part in this

Advantages:
- you get to learn a lot about the NCAA college game, who are best players & teams, as well as who are good players on poor teams.
- there are regular updates of all NCAA games
- put your knowledge and strategy to the test vs fellow lacrosse nuts
- at the end of the season I win

Disadvantages:
- it is strangely addictive, as you suddenly care who wins between Siena vs Detroit Mercy
- There are updates nearly every day throughout the whole NCAA season
- You get to chat and compete with fellow lacrosse nuts
- at the end of the season I win

The earlier we can get this started and the more players involved the better it will be.
It would be great if we could find someone new to be The Champion

Prepare your Draftboards

Rules / Guidelines

[UKLaxfan]

OK, so I've set up a league for us on http://www.lax.com

League name: LaxforumsUK
password: norbury2012

Please join the League ASAP and ask any friends who might be interested to do the same.

the more Fantasy Players we have in our League the better the competition will be.

Guidelines:
You must draft a team of 14, with only 8 slots available to start on any gameday (3 attack, 3 middies, 1 goalie, 1 defense unit). The remaining bench players can be whatever positions you want them to be. You may not fill the allotted starting positions with players from other positions, so choosing to draft 2 middies and 8 attackmen will just mean you start 3 attackmen and have a blank starting roster spot for your 3rd middie (which of course you can choose to do if its part of your strategy). Only Division I players (and defenses) are available. Once a player is selected by a member of your league, that player is no longer available for the remaining league members to select.

You may start your players as many times as you like, so factor in a team's schedule when drafting. You may not either activate or de-activate a player from your starting line-up on the same day he has a game. An example: you have 4 attackmen, 3 of whom have a game on saturday and are all starting, 1 who has a game sunday and is currently on your bench. On saturday, your 3 starters will be locked in the 'on' position so even though your sunday player can be toggled, there's no room for him as a starter. At the split second of midnight, your 3 saturday starters will now be free to get de-activated, but your sunday starter will be locked in the 'off' position. So you can only get the benefit of three starters over a 2-day window simply because you won't be able to swap them instantaneously. DEFENSES CANNOT BE TRADED.

Points are awarded based on actual game performance. Attackmen and middies get a point for each goal and assist. A team defense is awarded the difference between 13 and their goals allowed (ie, you would lose 2 points if your D gave up 15 goals, gain 10 points if they only let up 3). Goalies are awarded their saves * save percentage.

How your league decides to organize your draft is up to you. The league commish is reponsible for entering the draft results once your draft is settled.


************************
Get your Draft Boards together
I propose we do the draft a week on Sunday,

Draft: Sunday 19th February 2012
Time: 7:00pm

Please PM me with your email & phone numbers

The Draft is the hardest part of setting up a League and it needs everyone to have there selections to hand, so we can do it LIVE.

I also suggest setting up a Facebook Group temporarily so we can use the chat facility, unless anyone has a better idea on how to run the draft?

So you have a week to Register in the League and get friends to do the same.

If you aren't available you will be drafting Air Force players which you can change as and when your ready but Team Defences can't be changed so unless you pick one you will have one selected for you.
