Hey all Durham Players!! This coming indoor season we will be offering a wide variety of opportunities to keep on top of your game. Here is some brief info on each of them:

1. 6 on 6 Sunday afternoon Indoor (gender ratio 4:2) in Whitby – We had 18 teams of various skills and ran this as 3 divisions of 6 teams with movement between division after every 5 weeks. If your team wants to keep playing all winter then this is the easiest and cheapest way to do it. If you can’t get your whole team to sign up then you can sign up as individuals and I will keep you together. Last year we had 16 team entries and 2 teams of individuals.

2. 7 on 7 Tuesday night Indoor – this league has all the excitement of the real game except for that nasty wind. We may be moving this league to the Taunton and Rossland area in order to get a better price and also better times. Most games will have 7 pm and 8 pm starts. Last year we only had 8 team entries but this year we will be making a push for some teams of individuals.

3. NEW this year will be a Thursday night Parity/Hat league. The league will have the same indoor rules, except it incorporates individual statistical tracking, balanced team competition, and social mayhem! Player stats (eg. goals, assists, D’s, turnovers) for each game are tracked, and these stats (along with game scores) are submitted weekly. Player values increase and decrease based on their statistics. GM's can trade players throughout the season and are essentially forced to do so in order to stay under league-imposed ‘salary caps’. Registration is for individuals only. Teams will not have large rosters so only players who can make it each week should sign up. If you would like to play with someone all season, you must be a GM and draft/trade for them! If anyone would like to be a team GM for this season please send me an email. If anyone has been a GM for a parity league before and wants to be the league director and oversee everything please also send me an email.
