Ok this is the low down guys on whats what and how it works......i hope.

As a quick note all teams invited into the top 2 divs are required to play all events as they are a locked divisions. If you cannot play all events you cannot play the locked divs. If a team surrenders its place then it will be offered to the next highest placed team respectively. Placings cannot be bought or sold.

Only the conference is an open division which is not required to have every event played.

M5 Premier League.
The top 12 teams will compete for the M5PL title in a locked division. Now to save confusion this race 2 format is NOT xball. It is actually a best of 3 format without a timed turn around period. Their will be at least 1, if not 2 matches between each teams game to give teams time to prepare for next match. Each match will be a standard M5 format match. Teams will recieve a minimum of 10 matches, possible 15 matches per event.

Teams will play each other over the season as follows.

Prelims and Finals each event.

Teams will be snake seeded into 4 groups of 3 teams in each group, and play each team in a race 2 format(as above).
They will then be ranked into 3 finals groups of 4 teams per group.
The winner of each group will go into the group A.
The runners up will progress into group B, and third in group into group C

Teams will then play each team in their group in a further race 2 format. Ranking points will then be assigned based upon your final place. Group A = 1st-4th pos, Group B 5th-8th, Group C 9th-12th.

The bottom two teams will be relagated into the Championship at the end of the season.

M5 Championship.

The next 18 teams in the CPPS will compete in the M5Ch.

This will be a standard 5 man format. No race 2, just teams will play each other as usual.

Teams will be snake seeded into two groups of 9 and play 8 matches per event.

At the end of the season the winner will be promoted, and a further 3 going into a round robin play off against each other for a final promotion place.

The bottom 3 will be relagated into the conference.

M5 Conference.

This is the open division and the only way into the locked divisions. At the end of the season the top 2 teams will be promoted into the championship, with the next 4 (positions 3-6th) going into a play off system for the last promotion place.

These are the teams that have qualified to play the following leagues: All teams are requested to confirm there spot, ideally by email so we can email them a new rosta and disclaimer which we would like filled out prior to next event and emailed back to us.

Looks good Rich, can see yuj have put a lot of thinking into it.

Can i ask why not run the Race2 as an xball-esque format? This will give the teams preperation for the end of the season stepping up to the M7 league if it calls for it.

Cheers bud

Simples that one.
Not every team wants to play x ball for one reason or another so we like to keep the two formats seperate.

We will offer an intro X ball as a race 2 format which will be full xball rules, just race to 2 pts 6 min time limit as trialed in afternoon at rd 2. This designed to be an easier, slightly lower cost format than full x ball. Again this is a different race 2 than the M5 version so dont get em confused please.

Love the concept for the premier league Rich now you have put it down in black and white :)

Should be an enjoyable next 3 rounds!

One question though, and I am hoping the answer is no ;) is coaching going to be allowed?

I would say as a democratic person we can put it to the vote as the Mills are allowing it i believe. So all team captains have a vote Yes or No. Majority wins. This only applies to M5PL and not other divs in M5 format.

Im not drawn either way as side line abuse helps get people involved, but as a player can take some of the skill out of a sneaky back door move.

Also, no team has confirmed their spot yet in locked divs!!!

Email sent to confirm the Clan. Voted a NO on the coaching, mainly because we will struggle to get someone to come down and not play :) and personally as I think it takes a bit of the fun out of it....
