Applications

I will accept applications every 48 hours. If you see yourself in the group within 48 hours of application, you have been accepted. If not, please try again! We have coaches miss out every tournament because they have confused the application process. Don't let that be you! Be sure to use the link provided in this post / the rulespack to make your team, regardless of the timezone you wish to apply to. This means it’ll all work. :)
