Welcome to the first ever season of VGCWL! We've decided to open up Manager signups a little bit early to give people more time to prepare for the upcoming league. Both new and returning managers from VGCPL are encouraged to sign up and we are locking the team count at six. Only post in this thread if you are signing up to manage a team as all other posts will be deleted. Player signups will begin on November 15th and end on the 28th with the draft taking place on the 29th/30th with week 1 of the tournament starting on the 31st. Overall, the tournament will last seven weeks and you must be active for the entirety, so please only sign up if you are willing to make that type of commitment.
The featured formats for this year are:
-2x VGC 2021 Series 11
-1x VGC 2021 Series 10
-1x VGC 2021 Series 9
-1x VGC 17/18/19 rotation
-1x VGC 14/15/16 rotation
Unlike VGCPL, we are limiting the number of teams to six in order to finish in a timely manner. However, still please don't be afraid to sign up! All teams will require a new team name (subject to approval) that includes a Pokemon Location e.g. The Seven Island Stoutlands.
DISCLAIMER: Any returning managers will not be allowed to reuse team names from VGCPL, as that is a separate League with different teams.
Manager Responsibilities
-Submit a player roster every week
-Host team signups/tryouts and participate in drafting for team members
-Host a team discord for practice and discussion
-Assist in resolving scheduling and match disputes
-Ensuring that your players finish their matches before the end of every week
Signing Up:
At minimum you must include the following in your post. Please take filling out the format seriously, most VGC players are not familiar with many Smogon players and vice versa, so the best way to leave a good impression is to fill out this post accurately and respectfully. If you do not yet have an assistant manager, leave it blank and edit when selected. Have your assistant manager confirm by liking the post or by posting that they confirm in the thread. An assistant manager is highly encouraged. Both the manager and the assistant manager will have the option to self-purchase prior to auction for exactly 15,000 credits.
