Sure, we'll check it out and get back to you. How
many players could you register? Would you be able to
make all the games...no forfeits? Sometimes it is
dangerous to put a whole groups of friends together
because if one misses, the enitre team is gone. That
creats a hard-ship for the opponent when we are
organizing league play.
Maybe we can get teams from other Austin High Schools
and have a HS division? WE know of players at
Anderson, LBJ, McCallum and Garza here in Austin.
Respond with your actual numbers, we'll talk to the
league organizers.
Peace,
Barbara
