Re: [seuniultimate] Re: Ladder League's future

Yep there's no problem with hosting uni-only events under the proposed
new system - that would be up to the event organisers. For the
(weekend) events where there would be both uni and club teams
competing, the schedule could try to give each uni team the same
number of uni vs uni games, but if there's the occasional anomaly then
it shouldn't affect the points hugely.

As well as bigger weekend / Weds afternoon events, I can imagine
Brighton would invite Discuits down for an evening game starting at
7:30pm, set up a couple of pitches and have Discuits vs Brighton and
Discuits 2 (or Reading Dragons) vs Brighton 2 (or Mohawks) going on.

There should hopefully be a variety of events running which teams can
pick and choose from - imagine in three years time when the number of
teams has doubled again, uni teams will probably be able to choose
between at least two events with different themes at any one time
(uni-only, development, 1st team training, beginners, womens...). I'm
hoping the systems we're putting in place now will have the depth to
be able to support such an increase in teams without needing to be
hugely modified (like the Tour has to be every few years).

Hi, I side with Gemma here. I'm at Reading Uni and we've entered hardly any LL events, and the Ladder is still a success. One of the great things about the...

I think it would be a really bad Idea to open up ladder league to open teams. It would cause more harm than good, bear in mind that we have already had over...

True it does work well as it is for the uni scene, but the fact is that the club scene could benefit massively from a similar system, so something has to be...

Wouldn't that then mean that teams who, by chance, played more uni - uni games would have more chance of doing better in the uni ladder league? I think that...
