Ladder League's future   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #373 of 642 |
Hi folks,

There is talk currently going on about the possibility of allowing
club teams (non-university) to compete in regional Ladder Leagues
alongside university teams - in other words, incorporating them into
SEULL instead of creating a separate Open Ladder League from scratch.

As the university players with the most Ladder League experience, what
are your initial thoughts about this?

Felix

Allowing for open team inclusion should create greater diversity in the league, and give those uni's seperated by distance some incentive to play their local...

For what it's worth I agree with Shim. I don't think there would be much of an uptake from open teams to play in ladder league with the well established LWL...

Just my two cents... as a UCL player who perhaps play more open ultimate than most Uni teams, it doesn't make much sense to me to allow open teams to play in...

... The LL concentrates on the Autumn and Spring terms, when all the open teams have are four LWL events. The LWL is changing rapidly and will soon limit...
