Legend
In the results grid, each row contains a team’s home matches and each column contains a team’s away matches. The home score is on the left. The fixtures are played in the following order (1 indicates the first team listed in the group draw, 2 indicates the second team, et cetera): 2v3, 4v1 · 1v2, 3v4 · 3v1, 2v4 · 1v3, 4v2 · 3v2, 1v4 · 2v1, 4v3

If two or more teams are equal on points on completion of the group matches, the following criteria are applied to determine the rankings:

1. higher number of points obtained in the group matches played among the teams in question,
2. superior goal difference from the group matches played among the teams in question,
3. higher number of goals scored in the group matches played among the teams in question,
4. higher number of goals scored away from home in the group matches played among the teams in question,
5. superior goal difference,
6. higher number of goals scored,
7. higher number of goals scored away from home,
8. higher number of wins,
9. higher number of wins away from home,
10. lower disciplinary points total based only on yellow and red cards received in all group matches (red card = 3 points, yellow card = 1 point, expulsion for two yellow cards in one match = 3 points),
11. 1. Champions’ Cup and Globe Cup: higher club coëfficient ranking,
    2. Series B Champions’ Cup and Youth Cup: drawing of lots,
    3. Super Cup: kicks from the penalty mark.

In the Super Cup, only criteria 1, 5, 6, and 11c apply.

[Commerce Heights]

Eight of the most decorated clubs in UICA competitions meet in Raynor City for a weekend of football festivities marking one hundred years of UICA competition.

The Aeropag accord
The Champions’ Cup and Globe Cup were originally founded by corporate sponsors and, for many years, had no formal governance. That all changed when, prior to the seventeenth Champions’ Cup and fourteenth Globe Cup, the organizers of each competition met in Aeropag to form the Union of International Club Associations, which took on the administration of the existing club competitions and provide a solid foundation for the future of the game. Over the past century, UICA has restructured its competitions for the benefit of all associations, established the Youth Cup to help develop the next generation of footballers, and continued to increase revenues to participating clubs through centralized negotiations with its UICA Partners.

Seventy-five years ago, the World Assembly passed a resolution recognizing UICA’s contributions to the footballing world, and on that occasion a pair of matches were played at Columbia’s Holmes Stadium to celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of the institution, kicking off what has since become a quadranscentennial series. The UICA Centenary Series will be the fourth installment; for logistical reasons, played not on the anniversary itself, but in the middle of the anniversary season. The two-day event at The Battleground comprises four matches, celebrating two of the most successful teams in each of the main UICA competitions.

Kionao Locals (TUR)–Jamaica Giants (JSY)
First, the Series B Champions’ Cup is represented by two of its two-time winners, Kionao Locals and Jamaica Giants. Both clubs now feature in the top flights of their respective leagues, but the former Déclassé Division side have recorded more Series B Champions’ Cup wins from the group stage onward than any other club, while the former Élite League Two team were the only one in history ever to defend the Series B Champions’ Cup title, winning the fifty-eighth and fifty-ninth editions. The only prior meeting between the two sides was, unfittingly, in Globe Cup 49, when they drew home and away in a group stage (though Kionao Locals held the edge on away goals, scoring one at the New Kingstonian after a scoreless affair at Kionao Minor Field). Of course, their clash at The Battleground need not be any more decisive.

Ulsa (EUR)–Metropolis Alligators (VLD)
The obvious representative of the Globe Cup is its current champion and only four-time winner, Ulsa. Their opponent in Raynor City will not be any of the seven other clubs which have won that competition twice, but instead Metropolis Alligators, who only have one Globe Cup title to their name, but this season became the first club to tally one hundred wins in the competition proper. Neither club will be adding to their Globe Cup collection this season, with the Alligators crashing out of the competition at the group stage and Ulsa becoming a victim of their own success in the Champions’ Cup. This will be the clubs’ first ever meeting in a UICA match.

Jungle Strike FC U19 (VIL)–Mâ Âlâmëómë U19 (FFD)
Kicking off the second day of the Centenary Series will be the standard-bearers for the Youth Cup, playing under that competition’s rules with under-19 squads augmented by up to three players aged 20. Jungle Strike FC and Mâ Âlâmëómë are the only teams to play in a Youth Cup final twice in the tournament’s relatively brief history, with the Vilitan team winning both and the Farf side losing both. These sides have met in two Youth Cup group stages, with Strike winning three matches out of four, but also in the quarter-finals of Youth Cup 7, in which Mâ Âlâmëómë knocked out the former champions on spot kicks on their way to a final defeat by East Franz Athletic.

Raynor City United (VAL)–Yuba United (COM)
For viewers of the Champions’ Cup around the world through all its years, there have been no two names more familiar than these. These clubs, both clad in navy blue, are the only ones to have qualified for UICA competition in every one of its sixty-seven seasons, and only rarely have they been relegated to the Globe Cup. Rockers supporters will tell you that Raynor City United have made 66 appearances in the Champions’ Cup to Yuba United’s 64, while fans of the Silver-Blues will remind you that their side has graced the group stage 63 times (including the first 60 consecutively) to the Vanorian side’s 61. They have ten Champions’ Cup titles between them; the Bedistani club’s six make them the only club to have won the UICA Star award, displayed on their club badge, while the hosts of this match await only one more Champions’ Cup success to earn their own UICA Star. Incredibly, for all their history, these two clubs have met only three times in UICA competitions: Yuba has twice eliminated Raynor City in the knockout phase, winning the quarter-final of Champions’ Cup 21 on aggregate and the eighth-final of Champions’ Cup 49 on away goals, while Raynor City United’s only triumph was in their most important clash, in extra time in Göteborg in the final of Champions’ Cup 34. Notable for this occasion, perhaps, is the fact that Yuba United have not lost at The Battleground in their two UICA matches here.

Champions’ causes
As is traditional, all proceeds of the Centenary Series will be distributed in equal shares to the charities nominated by the eight participating clubs:

• Jamaica Giants and Yuba United have pledged their shares to the Skyward Foundation, established to support the victims and their families of the recent Olympic Tower air filtration crisis.
• Jungle Strike FC and Kionao Locals have nominated the Cocoabo Preservation Society, dedicated to the conservation of Turori’s native fauna.
• Mâ Âlâmëómë has chosen to give to Rulandese Lives, a fund for the victims of the recent bombings.
• Metropolis Alligators named the Fundación Madre Laura, which operates an orphanage in Metropolis’s Obrero neighborhood.
• Raynor City United will contribute the money to its own foundation which constructs football pitches for underprivileged children across the Atlantian Oceania region.
• Ulsa has split its share three ways, giving to Rushmori conservationist group the International Geese Foundation; the Endemian Conflict Relief Fund, which aids victims of the Euran–Sameban War; and FootyAid, providing football infrastructure in developing economies.

UICA will make an additional contribution to its own Football Everywhere campaign, which assists nascent football associations with infrastructure and administrative expertise that will move them toward becoming full UICA members.

Watchful eyes
The Centenary Series will also constitute UICA’s first live experiment with video assistant referees. Three top UICA match officials will watch each match from inside The Battleground, using video replays to aid the referee with penalty decisions, sendings-off, and potential disallowed goals. In total, the refereeing operation over the two days involves an all-star cast of thirty-two officials straight off the top of the UICA list, including six video assistant referees each assigned to one match each day.

(TUR)              Mliona-Lpaka    4–3    Flanders FC               (COM)   3–2   1–1

For the fifth time in six seasons, a new name on the Champions’ Cup trophy is assured as Crisisbless take on Mliona-Lpaka. The Premiership runner-up’s away win over Ulsa ensures Nepharim representation in the final for the third time in four editions after Starling’s triumph and subsequent failed defense of their title. Turori’s top team, who finished only sixth in the league last season, are the second club from the island emirate to make it this far, but Stellar Division sides have lost in their last three final appearances. Crisisbless has never before played a V-League club, but Mliona-Lpaka have a long history against other Nepharim outfits, winning four and losing five of their twelve prior matches, and most recently trading blows with AFC Treason in the group stage. Whichever team wins, they will have the pleasure of facing local opposition in the Super Cup.

Updated coëfficients are now available.

The entry limits for the next season of UICA competition will be as follows:

Champions’ Cup 68: The number of teams allowed is determined according to association coëfficients, with the following distribution:

• Associations ranked 1–3 (Nephara, Audioslavia, and Eura) are allowed to enter four teams.
• Associations ranked 4–6 (Capitalizt SLANI, Farfadillis, and Cosumar) are allowed to enter three teams.
• Associations ranked 7–33 (Brenecia, Turori, Valanora, 95X, Osarius, New Gelderland, Zwangzug, Pasarga, Schottia, Ceni, Taeshan, Unified Sunrise Islands, San José Guayabal, Port Christopher, Electrum, Mertagne, Vilita, Valladares, Eastfield Lodge, Jasĭyun, Whirl Islands, Dainer, Association francophone, Chromatika, Starblaydia, Royal Kingdom of Quebec, and Semarland) are allowed to enter two teams.
• Associations ranked 34 and below, and unranked associations, are allowed to enter one team.
• Special considerations:
  
  • Mliona-Lpaka and Sabrefell Moths are assured places in the Champions’ Cup. If either fails to qualify through their domestic league, their association will receive an additional place. If either qualifies for the Globe Cup, their Globe Cup place will be vacated.
  • Élite League: Has five places. Capitalizt SLANI must enter at least two teams and another association at least one.
  • V-League: Has four places. Turori and another association must enter at least one team each.
  • Terranean League West: Has four places. New Gelderland and another association must enter at least one team each.
  • Terranean League East: Has three places, which must be filled by at least two different associations.
  • Because the Élite League has three associations ranked in the top 32, and may register only two of them as primary associations, 33rd-ranked Semarland is allotted a second place in the Champions’ Cup.

Globe Cup 65: Every association is allowed to enter three teams. Multiassociational leagues with two primary associations may enter six teams, of which no more than four may be from the same association; associations ranked 1–3 must enter at least two teams each, and associations ranked 4–12 (including Capitalizt SLANI, Turori, and New Gelderland) must enter at least one team each.
Series B Champions’ Cup 65: Every association is allowed to enter three teams. Multiassociational leagues with two primary associations may enter six teams, of which no more than four may be from the same association.
Youth Cup 20: Every association is allowed to enter one team. (The youth teams of clubs which reach the Champions’ Cup group stage will also be entered.) Multiassociational youth leagues with two primary associations may enter two teams, which must be from different associations.

UICA has elected to renew its partnership with Tropicorp for seasons 68–75.

Future bids for host stadia will be taken into consideration, though the default in case of no bids will always be the stadium of Stade de Torgos in Torgos. A final reminder also that all Rushmori nations only (including any and all puppets) will be able to submit their league champions only (or top ranked team in the event of multi-associational leagues of more than one Rushmori nation) for entry into the next CdC; this includes puppet leagues that don't submit to UICA. The submission period opened when Commerce Heights closed entries to the last UICA tournaments, and will close again when Commerce Heights closes entries to the next UICA tournaments. No invitations will be sent. You must indicate at the bottom of your league summary that you wish your league champion to take part, and I take no responsibility for missing it if you've only shown it in your table.

Keep your entries coming in for the next edition!

XXIV Campionato Esportivano di Campeones Champions
Willox Street Pirates
(Port Christopher)

This edition of the CEdC featured two sides from a nation that had never before won a CEdC. It was a bitter fight to the end, as Willox Street and Blue Coast struggled for air. Finally, at the 87th minute, Willox Street threw a decisive nail into the coffin of the away juggernauts to seal themselves theirs, and Port Christopher's, first title.

---

Entries will now be accepted for the twenty-fifth edition of the Campionato Esportivano di Campeones.

• Each association residing in the region of Esportiva is allowed to submit two (2) teams for entry into the CEdC.
  

  • Traditional European-style leagues might submit their [regular-season champion and either] runners-up, a cup winner or the winners of a qualifying play-off (iirc, SJG used to use this last format).
  • Leagues that decide the championship by play-off might submit the [playoff winner and either their] losing finalists or regular season winner.
  • Apertura-Clausura leagues would naturally submit the winners of each section[, unless the same team won both sections, in which the football association reserves the right to send a second team on sporting merit using the criteria above].

  As far as I am concerned, how each association decides qualification is their prerogative outside the obvious sporting merit clause.

• All entries must be prefaced specifically with the abbreviation "CEdC".
• The cutoff for submissions will now coincide with the posting of the UICA Champions' Cup finals and Super Cup.
• Final site bids will not be considered for this edition. Stay tuned for the final site announcement.

FC Capri becomes the first Vanorian side outside of Raynor City United to win the competition and do it in their first trip to the tournament. Having to come back in the first of the knockout rounds and survive through the rigors of extra and penalties against Hastmead in the Final, the Typhoon showed a certain amount of resilancy that enabled their triumph, and the fourth title for Vanorian clubs as a whole, while Osarius is still looking for their first title. All entrants into the next AOCL must have won their nation's league or be the highest placed team of their association in a multiassociation league, with the exception of FC Capri who are guaranteed a spot in the next AOCL group stage. Should they fail to qualify directly, Valanora will be granted a second spot.

Procedural Notes:

• The entry of Coerefente (Dreamplanet) was rejected as the club in mention won a supercup competition, making it ineligible to qualify according to Cup Winners' Cup regulations.
• CS Saint-Rémy (Kelssek), as Coupe des Patriots winners, took the berth initially awarded to NGSA Ulyanov.
• The entries of New Lusitania and the Algarves (SC Braga & Sport Clube União Torreense) were also rejected since the domestic cup results for two of the last three rounds were not provided by their FA as stated by the competition regulations. Also, all associations (except the titleholder's one) are entitled to only one berth in the competition.
• The entries of Prime Para United (Boring Paradise) and [None] (Astograth) were rejected as neither club won a domestic cup competition.
• The entry of Hastmead Diamante (Osarius) was accepted on the condition that for next season the Osarian FA submits its cup results for at least the last 3 rounds of the competition, according to Cup Winners' Cup regulations. Failure to comply with this will result in the exclusion of its entry for next season.

Welcome one and all to the forty-second edition of the Cup Winners' Cup, brought to you by the Valladar Football Association. This edition of the competition will see 33 clubs from 32 associations participate, an increase of two clubs and two associations from the last edition, with Tanrısal entering as Cup Winners' Cup titleholders after failing to qualify through the Pasargan domestic cup system. With 33 clubs taking part in this edition, the cup winners from the two lowest ranked associations in the latest UICA coëfficients will take part in a preliminary play-in, with the winner joining the remaining 32 clubs in the first round proper, from where the competition will be played in a straight knockout format. Tanrısal will be looking to defend their title in this competition, however, they will have two strong threats in the form of Eura's Directus and Osarius' Hastmead Diamante, as well as former multiple CWC champions Jungle Strike FC from Vilita, AS Bezieres from Valladares, and possible dark horses Taeshan City Miners and Cosumar's Real Azuris, who recently won the Champions' Cup. So here we go with the draws:

Final Site Election

Two FAs (Kelssek and Vilita) sent their respective offers within the deadline, being both of them accepted and brought to the consideration of the Organizing Committee, which had scheduled a meeting at a hotel in Metropolis to select the winning bid. Two clerks at the Valladar Football Association were entrusted with the paperwork for both bids (one closed envelope for each), and were instructed to take the two bids from the VFA House to the hotel where the Organizing Committee had arranged the meeting. However, one of the clerks left the VFA HQs for downtown Metropolis much later than the other one, and then got lost on his way to the place. Since the members of the Organizing Committee were in a rush and had been waiting the clerk for 2 hours, they decided to pick the bid that arrived on time to the hotel as the chosen one, meaning that the forty-second Cup Winners' Cup final will be played at Tivali Ring Stadium in Alikki-Corra, Vilita (cap. 87,000).

Real Azuris (COS) vs. Directus (EUR)

[Valladares]

The 42^nd Cup Winners' Cup

Final
Played at Tivali Ring Stadium in Alikki-Corra, Vilita

Real Azuris (COS) 3–1 Directus (EUR)

Congratulations to Real Azuris, who won Cosumar's first ever Cup Winners' Cup. On the other hand, this was Directus' second defeat at the final in as many attempts in the last 3 seasons.

Notes for Cup Winners' Cup Entry

• Each association may enter ONE club into the Cup Winners' Cup, with the exception of Cosumar which may enter one club in addition to Real Azuris.
• Should Real Azuris win their qualifying national association or league cup, the spot held over for a second Cosumarite entrant will be vacated.
• Clubs can only qualify through ONE domestic cup competition.
• Each user may enter clubs from no more than two associations.
• With the exception of Real Azuris, all entered teams must have won a national association or league cup; Super Cup winners and winners of play-offs cannot be entered.
• Entrants must be posted in the International Domestic Soccer NewsWires (i.e. this thread), and at least the last three knockout rounds of the domestic cup tournament (i.e. quarterfinals, semifinals, and final) must have been scorinated and posted (with a link in the IDSN if it is posted elsewhere).
• The deadline for Cup Winners' Cup entry will expire at the moment the first UICA post for the next cycle is posted.

Stadium bids for the final of the 43rd edition of the Cup Winners' Cup are now being invited. Only stadiums with a minimum capacity of 30,000 people will be eligible to bid for the final, and bids should be posted in this thread with relevant details of the stadium and its facilities.

[Bonesea]

Who will be the next Adnan Szalai*, Callum Banda, or Val Kylx? [Perhaps Adnan Szalai will retain his Szalai-ness]

Boldsport Magazine, proud purveyor of shoddy sports journalism since about last April, brings you the second edition of what is sure to be the global phenomenon of the Boldsports Sports Writers Awards for the greatest football players in the universe: The Galacticos Index.

Boldsport Editor-in-Chief, Izzy Worthette:

As was the case in the last cycle, the great and glorious, the old and the ancient, were gathered together at the glamourous - well, for Bonesea anyway - Royal Polarian Hotel on Herring Island, to the north of the capital Spittalsea to celebrate the mighty feats of our multiversal greasy churners (that's footballers to you and me) who have brought such entertainment for the last three hundred years or so. And what better place to assemble, in a hotel named after the home islands of the legendary late Sol Kierkegaard, for whom one minutes' solemn applause was given in memory of his recent passing. That, I am ashamed to say, was the highlight of a prematurely cancelled event.

Naturally the Eurans are an overly-sensitive bunch at the moment with all the argy-bargy running amok in their home nation, so it was no surprise in a way that a fight broke out on the dinner table of Globe Cup runners-up Revolutionaries; but it would appear after reviewing the CCTV footage later that in fact it was not the poor war-weary Eurans who started the fight but foreign team-mates who began by throwing tea-cakes at each other in jest and then at some point lost their sense of humour and their tempers. Young Sunrisian keeper Brâm Couch seems to have drawn the ire of latino pair Meysom Salume and Sebestián Núñez, and Spittalbuns were replaced with eclairs as Euran team-mates tried in vain to calm everyone the fibula down. However it all got out of hand with Turoki Tide keeper Ondrej Cech having a go, and the bunfight at the R.P. Hotel spread to the Farf' Avenida Leal team - Mattías Passarelli not endearing himself with his team-mates when he started blowing pecan twists willy-nilly; Ruy Monrazón and Trejo Maes intervening with custard pies and muffins. Chromatik Kéìrâ Andísorí with the Starling detachment launched a pre-emptive trifle strike at the neighbouring Myrmidon FC table, seemingly aimed at Stewie Burns. The poor Nepharans of Starling, Crisibless, AFC Treason, Moths and Brinemouth were entirely covered in gateaux within a minute of the first crumbs being scattered, caught in a patissaerial crossfire. Even the elves had taken damage. While many looked to the sage old legends of the Holy Asylum in the corner for some assistance and a call to order, they seemed entirely pre-occupied. Simeone de Bradini and Juan Tzimichesapeake seemed to have amassed at least double the amount of chocolate truffles than any other guest at the table, and were busy counting them with the baffled Audioslavs and Slanizstas while everyone else covered themselves in an edible sort of infamy.

When it was done, the dinner was ruined, the Royal Polarian rather soiled, and there was no appetite for the presentations to follow. It was agreed the best course of action would be to cancel the event and let the good people of Boldsport deal with the mess, and publish the results online. Next cycle, we all agreed, there would be less sugary food at the event.

It has been an exhaustive process to get to this point and the journalists who make up the panel of sports writers have followed no less than 196 players across the top of the game from 30-odd nations and 23 of the best clubs in world football. This long, long list of superstars and cult heroes is as follows:

And so onto the longlist, whittled down to the best thirty-nine players in the multiverse in the last cycle, and the locals have cause to celebrate with Napoléon getting onto the list to represent Bonesea. Although, of course, he's only Boney by adoption. And he doesn't play in Bonesea any more. And he's banned from the national team... so a small victory, really. Anyway, without delay, the longlist, in alphabetical order, is as follows:

Morlaithan Aldamiel		713	DC	VAL	AC Izotz Zubia
Kéìrâ Andísorí			 22	ST	CMT	Starling

We now begin to whittle down our candidates towards the prizes. First, I’m proud to present the Galacticos Index Team of The Cycle sponsored by the highly sought-after watch maker Schu-Tallinger of Reselia. Each player selected for the Best Eleven plus seven subs will receive a highly valuable collectors item platinum Schu-Tallinger timepiece as well, I’m sure, as renewed terms on their contract.

The Boldsport Galacticos Team of The Cycle is as follows:



Special congratulations are due to Ilglerdiriel Lithvathar and Peter Svensson, who both make the Galactico XI for the second consecutive cycle.

And so to the shortlist for the player of the cycle. This is where we get to the real nitty gritty - thirty-nine becomes nine. And the nominees, in alphabetical order, are:

Kéìrâ Andísorí		 22	ST	CMT	Starling
Serabi Chamya		 23	MC	VIL	Mliona-Lpaka
Tájö Çíânflöné		 26	A	FFD	Raynor City United
Jirijii Januaa		 25	DLC	VIL	Mliona-Lpaka
Ilglerdiriel Lithvathar	735	M	VAL	Raynor City United
Calogero Metz		 30	GK	FFD	Cassandra City
Kiliko Riazen		 25	FC	VIL	Mliona-Lpaka
Trenn Rien		 25	ST/RW	CMT	Avenida Leal
Carlos Alberto Sáez	 33	A	VLD	Raynor City United

Ancient elfin type Ilglerdiriel Lithvathar reaches the short list for the second consecutive season, but there is no place for last cycle's player of the multiverse Adnan Szalai, who must hand over his crown to a new hero.

Let’s move on to the Boldsport Young Player of the Cycle, sponsored by NomNom world famous confectioners - because sometimes, sour sugar is good for you. With a number of young players competing right at the top of the sport already, this was a difficult and tightly-contested affair.

The three NomNominations, in alphabetical order, are:

Linkat Cjinder		18	DRC	VIL	Mliona-Lpaka
Rodger Mariezkurrena	21	ML	AUD	KT Moreazerau
Claudio Romano		19	ST	PAS	AC Izotz Zubia

And the winner of a lifetimes’ supply of sugar toucans and chocolate toads is…

.
.Rodger Mariezkurrena

Rodger becomes the second consecutive Audioslav to win the young player award - they must be doing something right in the acadamies up there in north east Ao. The future looks bright green and a sort of red wine burgundy colour.

And so we come to the final presentation - the Boldsport Galactico Player of the Cycle, sponsored by legendary dealers in precious objects, The Nomarque Mint of Taxhavn, who are providing the winner of this prestigious award with the equally presitgious prize of Nothing^TM - for the man, woman or person of indeterminate gender who has everything.

“Nomarque Mint present our finest creation to date: Orbis Vacuume, the latest in a legendary line of Product N^o.1’s by the world famous Mint. 134.373924 millilitres of purest hard vacuum encased in a 3mm Adamant shell of 65.4mm diameter and an impossible 103.36% purity; nowhere in the entire multiverse will you find such extraordinary refinement, polished to a near frictionless 0.1255mu.

“And, naturally, it is beautiful beyond any useful scale of measurement."

But there can be only one Supreme Galactico or player of the cycle (mainly because we could only afford one Orbis Vacuume) and finally we are at the point where we can reveal them. But first, there must be honourable mentions for the close runners-up. In third place…

.
.
Calogero Metz

In second place, and what a magnificent rise to the top of world football it has been in such a short space of time…

.
.
Kéìrâ Andísorí

And so, finally, ladies, gentlemen, persons of indeterminate gender, gender-irrelevant children, anthropomorphic creatures of the more distant corners of the multiverse and disreputable oiks covered in bakers confections - the winner of the Boldsport Galactico Player of the Cycle is:

.
.
Tájö Çíânflöné

"Football sometimes runs in the family. That is the case of the Çíânflöné family. Just like his cousin Fôrté, Täjó is immensely talented at kicking balls. He's got acute tactical awareness and a consequent knack for exploiting defensive gaps with his speed, coupled with some sharp finishing skills. He’s one of only three Farf players to have won the Champions’ Cup."

And that concludes the Boldsport Galactico World Player of the Multiverse for the present cycle. Any complaints about the final decisions should be directed to spamfolder@boldsport.oi.

For those who are interested, there was method to this madness. Taking top 20 UICA teams, top 10 national teams, loads of searches, marking down RP comments, looking at transfers, and coming to some form of RP bonus scoring led to the result you see here. Not very scientific but based on what I could see and read. The lesson for future galacticos: get a move to a top UICA club that does a lot of newswire posts… other nations RPing about your stars counts double… the count begins again after the Cygnus Cup final.

Final Site Bids

Series B Champions Cup Final
Burdina Jauregia
Capacity: 85,000
City: Ferramendiak, Audioslavia
The Burdina Jauregia, or Iron Palace in the local dialect, was finished just a few months before World Cup 75 and was used to host the opening match of the tournament as well as the fourth quarter-final, in which Audioslavia put five goals past Electrum.

The outer structure uses, as the name suggests, quite a lot of iron, if only for visual effect, and more modern materials are used the higher up the stadium you go. The ground's most noticeable feature is the criss-cross iron pattern over the roof, giving it the feel of an oversized implement from one of the Saw films when viewed from far away.

Inside, the pitch is large and surrounded on all sides by two tiered stands that rise up to the aforementioned grid. The seats, numerous and fairly luxurious as far as stadia go, are painted white in the colours of tenants KT Ferramendiak, who moved into the stadium at the end of the tournament. The stadium played host to the most recent Globe Cup final, which was a point of pride for club KT Ferramendiak, but only after arch city rivals KT Itzalovalle had been knocked out in the semi-finals of the very same tournament.

Cygnus Cup Final
Arena Kirola / The 66 Stadium
Capacity: 85,500
City: Cathair, Audioslavia
The 66 Stadium, called the Arena Kirola for marketing purposes, became the home stadium of the Audioslavia national football team for World Cup 66, for which it was built. One could call the Kirola Arena 'modern', but as the word tends to imply abstract minimalism and modest use of space, the word isn't quite the right one to use. The arena features a large shopping complex, complete with cinema, an array of chain cafes and restaurants, three gyms, a swimming pool and even a sauna. The conference rooms are numerous, large and lavish, and the media centre for visiting journalists and television crews is arguably one of the biggest and hi-tech in the world.

As for the football part of the stadium, one could be forgiven for thinking it was an afterthought, squeezed in at the last minute between the vast media complex and larger of two fast food restaurants. In truth, the narrow, long pitch is perfectly suited to the cautious, defensive, kontrapuntzeka brand of football played by the Audioslavian national team and adopted by club tenants 1830 Cathair, who not only won five LigAnaia championships at the ground but also their first and (to date) only UICA Champions Cup trophy. Rivals AC Izotz Zubia also won their Champions Cup trophy on the same ground. The narrow playing area, towering stands (the FFA's insistence on large, comfortable seating for each punter necessitated the stadium's vertigo-inducing height, with three tiers encircling the pitch) and large roof lets little light in during the day, but keeps the sound of the crowd echoing around the arena allowing for a deafening atmosphere. The the state-of-the-art floodlight system, bright white goal nets and high, white walls between the grass and the stands - laden with electronic advertising for big games - gives the stadium a distintive look, perfectly suited to live television.

The MONTPRES Tinhampton Megaleague - Season 1
Are YOU wasting away your time and money gambling? GambleResponsibly.ti. Over 18s only.
We had to put that statement there because this league is sponsored by a bookmakers'. OK?

The Tinhampton Megaleague, comprised of a bunch of Sunday League teams and one meta-reserve team, is confusing - to say the least - and Tinhampton's official national league. Of course, the league winners enter the UICA Champions Cup and the cup winners enter the Cygnus Cup. But what about those that aren't so fortunate? Well, they go into the Globe Cup, but it does get confusing.

The second-best team (out of eight) in the league qualifies for the Globe Cup in their own right, but the teams between third and sixth have to enter a playoff with six games to see who can make it, unless the teams in third and sixth themselves are ten points or more apart (in which case the third-place team autoqualifies). Points totals are then halved and rounded up (and all other records discarded for playoff purposes), before a double round robin is played. The winner of that league nabs Tinhampton's second place in the Globe Cup.

The third place, of course, is in the cup. The cup-winners always make the Cygnus Cup, meaning that the runners-up make the Globe Cup - if they have not qualified for a UICA competition based on league performances, then that place goes to the semifinalists. If both semifinalists have missed out on qualifying, a Third-Place Playoff will be held to determine who will qualify; if only one semifinalist has missed out (and at least one has to), they will autoqualify. The last resort is if the cup-winners are the only semi-finalists not to have made the Globe Cup, in which case they make it... unless they're also joined by the finalist, in which case an unofficial (for cup purposes) rematch will be held.

However, if the winner of the playoffs also wins the cup, they keep the Cygnus Cup place (obviously) but lose their Globe Cup place to the highest-ranked team in the playoffs that would not otherwise qualify for the Globe Cup. However, if the second-placed team wins the cup, they keep both places. You see, it really is confusing...

ABOUT THE CLUBS
which have mostly been garnered from Sunday Leagues and dumped into a big league for UICA purposes:

• Eleven Retinues SC is a general sports club, mostly football, named as such "because we are allowed to do so". None of them are known to be bodyguards. Often stylised "Zero Retinas" by irate football fans everywhere, for their seeming inability to make passes from distances any closer than 20 yards... and botching most of the ones they do get right. How they are so successful is allegedly only known to Elune. Because Eleven Retinues are that kinda club.
• Tin City Rejects is the alternative name used by Tinhampton City's C team. Yes, that's not even the reserves... that's the reserves for the reserves. Contrary to popular belief, "Illegitimi non carborundum" is the official motto of The Rejected Realms, not the Tin City Rejects. And that's just of the people that have even heard of the latter entity...
• Westpark Guns are another general football club. The Ryan's Garage Arena plays host to Tinhampton's home games. Until now, a shoddy Sunday-league team. Very few of them own guns.
• Nuclear Geese are a bunch of vaguely-experienced Tinhamptonian ex-non-Tinhampton-City players in the upper stages of the "non-league pyramid" in the realm of real-life. None of them, of course, have geese with nukes.
• Midtown Pals, unusually, is actually a group of pals from Tinhampton city centre. Or, at least, that's what it was like in 1976 when the club was founded.
• Refinery Hills SC has always had a large following from the city's miners. But mostly the refiners. Because it's called Refinery Hills.
• Vertos United? I think I'll let y'all guess where all of the players currently study at. Of course you said Vertos Campus in Tinhampton University!
• New Lions Club is "the foreigner's club". Sure, some Tinhamptonians, but mainly foreign "mercenaries" from Neokarta, Demanams, Nuli, even New Islet, etc., which some say have drenched the soul out of the club. The only club in the league with foreign players, not due to protectionist policies but due to wages. Oh, did I tell you that Tinhampton's league has some of the most route-one, low-quality football known to man? That's why nobody seems to get anything more than a couple of hundred quid a month. Literally everybody has a second job.

The transfer window has been quite busy for Pasargan clubs, making a multitude of both foreign and domestic based transfers as clubs try to strengthen before the first match day in the league or for what they will be hoping are quite lengthy trips in the ICCs. Surprise Copa winners last season in Peynol-Lunas were the biggest spenders as they are getting ready for the trip through both the Globe Cup and the Cygnus Cup. Old Apoxian centerback Forde is still with the team but it is quite speculative that this will be his last season with the squad, a bit of an irony that this is the time he would decide to retire after his home nation returns to the international arena. All the same, it would be a great way to see out the stalwart servent to the club as to get to the group stages of the Globe Cup and with the strength of the signings that Peynol has made, they might just have a chance at doing so. Though it is strange to see CAP do almost nothing during the window, except to bring in a backup keeper from Bonesea. One has to wonder if such idleness might spell downfall for the club with the amount of competitions that they will be in.

[Pasarga]

Season 1982

The season started so wonderfully for Tani, with a show of strength against Peynol-Lunas in the Copa Real, getting revenge for the Peynol side beating them in the Copa de la Luna Final just a few months before. That good luck would even go through most of the season as they were part of a four horse race for the title in the SuperLiga, with the usual suspects of CAP and Baskita there alongside them, as well as a growing side in Hellinic Rouge. Despite a hiccup in the Copa da la Luna second round, where they lost at Kilmonarch against CAP, it looked like Tani would once again pip their rivals for the title, then the unimaginable happened. A surprise loss at Club Stein-los in a local derby in the thirty second game of the season started a five game streak where Tani lost points, as they then then surprisingly lost to Santos at home, lost at Turkish, then drew Baskita and Hellinic before finally righting the ship against Galatica. Those points dropped saw the lead that Tani had built at the top of the table evaporate and all of a sudden it was CAP who was at the top by a point, and they held on to that one point lead with all they could muster during the last two games, coming out of the blue to snatch the title straight from Tani's hands.

However that was not all from CAP this season as they progressed through the Copa with a methodological approach that one would expect from the most decorated side in Pasargan football, as Targaryen lead The Hurricane like the moniker they took all the way to the Final in Torgos. Awaiting them in the capital was surprise package Mytos-Turin who had not only managed to get to the Final but also finished comfortably in the SuperLiga table despite being one of the promoted sides. Brücke and Targaryen would both get goals, with the former getting their goal in the third minute of extra time after the two sides finished level after ninety minutes, as CAP lifted the Copa to do a domestic double. After a half decade of under performing and having many question their lack of movement during the transfer window, The Hurricane were able to stand resolute and show that they are still one of the elite football clubs across the land, though none are happier for CAP's win in the Copa than Titanderth who went from fighting off relegation last season to somehow finishing fifth and getting a berth into the Globe Cup with CAP's win in the Copa.

The top half of the table didn't have any other surprises, with Turkish, Club Stein-los, and Santos all there within reach of the top five and a spot in the international club competitions, though Galatica continues to languish in the lower midtable for a third straight season. One has to wonder just what is going wrong over at the Stade de Torgos, as Galatica is usually one of the strongest clubs in the nation. The big surprises come through with who is going down from the top tier, as both Stilinkeep and Paulinthal were not good enough and suffer the drop despite being long standing members of the top flight. All three sides coming up have a lot of experience with the top tier, as Tyryrsier and SC Troubalose in particular seem to bounce up and down between the top tier and the second tier with somewhat regularity. Aleine United does have history on their side but they have not been in the top flight in nearly a decade, with a group of kids now growing up not knowing how good The Knights once were. In the international arena, Pasargan clubs continue to be very inconsistent, as Tani got the short end of the stick in the CdC, getting drawn with the best club in the world and bowing out as a result while neither the Globe nor Chamions' Cup saw a good measure of success for the league to build upon. If the league is going to continue to grow in stature and reputation, it needs to take lessons from the national team on how to become more of a consistent force moving here on out.

It was built to be a monument to the prowess that the Pasargan people can achieve whenever they put their minds to it and show the rest of the footballing community that they belong. Located in the heart of the capital, it is easy to reach from anywhere within the city and the noise created inside the stadium has been known to shake surrounding buildings whenever the Wanderers are playing. Recently renovated to bring the amenities up to the modern standard, with an integrated wireless network within the stadium.

Also, one of Hawkston's key players midfielder Timmy Ram had a knee injury and was forced to sit on a bench. The match was intense and field was mostly dominated by FC Power. Despite the strong pressure on their side, Hawkston managed to hold on and went to half time with a score 0-0. During 68th minute, FC Power's striker Otto Hotel shot the ball in Hawkston's net. However, he was offside and goal did not count. During 78th game minute, Hawkston's captain Bert Raven managed to get a good pass and was able to break through FC Power's defense. Raven went 1 on 1 with GK and shot the ball into goal. That was a decisive goal and Hawkston went through to the semi final.

FINAL

FC Hawkston 3–1 Tushlark Superstars

Tushlark Stadium was full. Players were marching on the pitch. Everyone's tensions were high. Referee blowed the whistle and the match started. Superstars started playing their usual, aggressive game. Hawkston played more defensive as usual, but that didn't stop Greg Kanufatu from scoring on 43rd minute. Score was 1-0 in Superstars favor. After half time, Hawkston changed their playstyle and were more aggressive from now on. That tactic prevailed, when Edi Oceania managed to break through Superstars defense on 61st minute. However, Taddeo Bulgari managed to block Oceania's shot. Hawkston won a corner shot, which was taken by Raven. He kicked the ball in front of the goal, where Timmy Ram's bicycle kick sent it into goal. The score was 1-1. On 78th minute, Hawkston's captain Bert Raven used a chance and made the score 2-1. This was followed by Superstars attack on 83rd minute, when Lev Mafati had a shot at Hawkston's goal. However, the shot was catched by goalkeeper Abel Berenice and Hawkston went on to counter-attack, which ended up with Edi Oceania scoring a goal. The match ended with score 3-1. FC Hawkston won the cup.

Lisboa, 19 de Maio de 2017

FAIRYTALE SEASON
Torreense grabs the league title somehow, whilst Braga stays 2nd - something unpredictable. The odds for Torreense's win were at 50/1 at the start of the season.
"And, Torreense? Ah, they'll proably get 10th, maximum. ""Braga will get a solid 5th, sure of it." - pundit Pedro Santos in STL's "Jogos de Hoje", predicting it in this season's Episode 1.

No one could predict this to happen. Torreense started with a string of four wins, but most thought this would die by November - this was not the case. What was more impressive was the fact that the big teams stayed further down. Porto clinched the last cup spot, as Benfica stayed out. Furthermore, Vitória Guimarães stayed in the second half of the table. Surprises continued as Naval 1ºMaio thrived, and Farense, as well as Chaves, failed to produce results.

May - Judgement Time
Braga played Torreense on the 5th May. on the penultimate matchday. They felt the pressure of the fact that the title would be most probably resolved by today. Torreense played defensely whilst Braga played on a more attacking mode. Torreense managed to win on the 92´(not usually their trait) with a goal from newly-bought Podence.
Meanwhile on the Battle for the Globe. Porto, Belenenses and Benfica could be in the Globe Cup. Benfica lost to Naval by 0-1, Belenenses suprisingly drew in Sta.Clara 0-0. Porto solidly won their games, meaning they went through. Considering Sevilha played Belenenses, the blues "weren´t really worried, as this could be turned around" - they were guaranteed.
At the bottom, any of the last five could go down. As there were five points between last and 15th - Leiria (14th) were safe by having ten points ahead.

Brought by English immigrants in the 1880s, until 1930 association football was the sport for the elite; The players in their overwhelming majority were white and wealthy men, and the clubs represented universities, European immigrants, and wealthy families.

But in 1934 the sport finally reached the other layers of Brazilian society and in 1950 most skilled athletes came straight from poverty and misery. Clubs quickly became "people's property" and athletes' salaries were paid with ticket profit and donations from club fans. The stadiums, however, were all built by the state. The first national competition happened in 1958 and was constituted by the regional champions and vice-champions of the same year. The format persisted until 1972 when the second division was added. However, it was not carried out for the next 10 years due to the instability of the national football regulations, which changed radically with each new season. The regulation continued its instability until the year 2000 when the national sports council met in the capital of the country and voted definitively in the format that would be used indefinitely for the next few years. In 2010 the council met again, and they voted for a new competition system for the second and first divisions; the round and robin format were chosen.

Regional leagues are a part of the country's life and culture. Annually, the best regional teams that are not on any level of the national football pyramid play home-and-away playoffs; The semi-finalists are automatically qualified for the third division of the following season. Clubs are rich and stable, especially those in the Southeast and East regions of the country and the economic disparity between the First and the Second Division is huge. But regardless of the team's region and origin, their fans and players defend their passion and work with as much force as possible, respectively.

Team Info The recently successful side from Atlantea, 1093 continues to impress while their more impressive historically rivals Hurricanes and Real continue to be rather sad to watch. The Cardinal have managed a few nice years and continue to be favorites to soon come into a chance to battle for the title. With the recent success of Taeshan City pretty much anyone is likely to push for the title.

Last Season Finish:15th
Team Info Atlantea have continued their lackluster form of recent years and honestly are not really expected to do much beyond comfortably stay top flight. That said they continue to buy up young players and with the additions to the roster of U21 center back Johnson Pern and other young strong players they hope to in a few years push back towards the top of the table.

Last Season Finish:19th
Team Info Bayern was unlucky for much of last season as many of their top players missed key games. They haven’t been the brightest side the last few years and it showed for much of last year. That said with a bright young player like Vanderweil in the midfield if the rest of the team can get some successful togetherness than they may battle for a top 10 position.

Last Season Finish:2nd
Team Info The Weavers continue to be a very strong side once again returning to the Champions’ Cup. They play well, they work well together and if last season is any indication they are likely to continue to push for the top of the table. That said with 3 of their back four changing in the offseason it could be a very interesting next few months of the season to see how they combine.

Last Season Finish:17th
Team Info Blacklake is a very strong contender for a top half season as they rode out a lot of bad injuries in the last season and continue to have most of their team together. With a strong contingent of players who play for international sides they really have a healthy look about them and could push for something in the upcoming season.

Offseason Moves: Promoted youth squad defender Steven Wright. Bought Yaton United Central Midfielder Jack Gordon.
Last Season Finish:15th
Team Info Capetown has returned to relative obscurity at the bottom half of the table. With many of their players returning to form that has most of the people who come to Capetown Stadium wishing they had the money of the league’s best teams. The side hasn’t done much in the past few years since reaching higher heights and doesn’t seem likely to continue to fight for top half finishes.

Last Season Finish:9th
Team Info: Celtic Rangers have been a revelation in their return to the top flight. A top 10 finish after a strong first year and many people seem to think they could even see some international play. With a strong team that includes two national team hopefuls and a bunch of other young and hungry players Celtic could be a strong part of the league moving forward.

Team Info Fadron Flight have been a top side for decades and continue to finish in the top half of the league basically every year. Perhaps the brightest young side in the league with 4 u21 national team players and starting Goalkeeper Xavier Troubador. The team as a whole looks strong and hopefully as they move forward they can push for their first title.

Team Info Hannah has faltered in the past few seasons and besides national team winger Anton Vader the team really does not possess any sort of ability to attack and does not really have any young players that seem likely to push the team moving forward. As a whole the hope on the mainland peninsula is not great for the side.

Offseason Moves: Bought Goalkeeper Jess Parker from Williams Isle. Bought Right Back Joseph Everett from Yaton United. Named Marius Lupin captain.
Other Accolades:
Last Season Finish:18th
Team Info Knightspurs have been up and down in the past few years and have pushed a lot for success in the league. But that said they are not the team they were back in the day when they had pushed for success and played internationally. Now they continue to be a interesting team, with three really young players that could push them towards success or make them a lot of money, especially the young stud Geoffrey Klingenberg.

Last Season Finish:14th
Team Info Rangers have not been their usual self ever since the Taeshan City Miners have pushed to the top of the league. After their fifth title the Rangers really lacked much of the play many are used to from the side. The flair of the Sebastian Rousseau days are long gone and the team really seems unlikely to push for the title again soon.

Other Accolades:
Last Season Finish:1st Erste Liga
Team Info Los Riosa won the second division rather handily and joining them is city rivals Poseidon in their maiden Premier league season. The Monstas continue to be a strong lower table team and seem likely to at least stay in the top division. With a backline still anchored by Andrew Chestnut they can definitely at least stay in the top flight.

Team Info Mierton really pushed for a top five position in the last season but come the end of the season they fell just short. With two youngster in the lineup in Cantebury and their new addition of Mathieu they may not be just ready to once again fight for a title, but they definitely are getting closer each season to finally getting their first championship.

Last Season Finish:22nd
Team Info Mt Ceabring’s first attempt at the premier league in a few years did not go well but an easily won game in a relegation playoff and like most premier league sides who make those matches managed to push to stay in the top flight. Perhaps the most interesting thing for this team moving forward is they have the brightest young center backs in the league with Fasnacht and Trueblood who in a few years could be the best duo in the world, let alone Taeshan.

Last Season Finish:6th
Team Info New Capetown has had a quite resurgence in the past few years and it is no wonder with a midfield anchored by Ensign Petersheim and fellow national teamer Tavon Greenshire. With a young defender on the bench in Prichards the team has a lot of hope moving forward for the team. They should continue to fight in the upcoming years for spots in international play and maybe their second ever championship.

Team Info The other side from New Capetown has fallen back to where many people would have expected them to finish in their first few seasons in the top flight. Behind a team that honestly doesn’t have any real stars they have managed to be strong in the past few years. That said they are once again favorites to drop sometime soon and seem unlikely to put in much of a fight.

Team Info Atlantea were the winners of the fight for fifth place and a spot in the Globe Cup, and with a team that continues to have the most international players in the league it is likely that they can push for another title in the upcoming season. The big news is that central midfielder Sahler Moon will likely get his first starts in the upcoming year and hopefully will be able to move the team forward towards winning the title again.

Sponsor:Water Solutions of Lake Minor
Nickname(s):Chihuahuas
Offseason Moves: Bought Left Back Karl Gomez from Ojian Orangemen.
Championships:18, 19
Other Accolades:
Last Season Finish:10th
Team Info Real Chinchinhua was able to finish in the top 10 last season as they continue to be a strong side. The midfield duo of Unterhausen and Fuegahita have been a strong part of their success and as they continue to work together it seems likely that in the next few years they could be the best duo in the league and maybe get the team’s first championship in almost 40 years.

Sleepy Hollow

Ground:Mort Field (69,000)
Manager:Joseph Anderson
Colors:Black, White and Gray
Jerseys:

Expectations:Middle Pack
Starters:Javier, Patterson, Ogletree, Galbert, Connors, Benitez, Cortez**, Diego, Braingwright, Juergen, Blue
ReservesCarlton, Gomez, Saunders, Backer, Kline

Nickname(s):Wranglers
Offseason Moves: Bought Left Back Taylor Patterson from Yaton United. Bought Right Striker Jalee Blue from Williams Isle
Championships:
Other Accolades: Fadron Pizza Cup Winners 25, Youth Cup 2 Winners
Last Season Finish:16th
Team Info Sleepy Hollow has returned to the bottom part of the league and with not many strong players the team as a whole seems unlikely to put much of an effort forward in the upcoming season. They really don’t have a lot of bright spots and to be completely honest they could find themselves in the relegation fight.

Taeshan City Miners

Ground:Taeshan Educators Park 56,000
Manager:Evander Peters
Colors:Red and Orange
Jerseys:

Fan Support:Medium
Expectations:Avoid Relegation
Starters:Poulsen, Forrest, Laranas**, al-Alma**, Selis, Yaguinho**, Champlain, McKay**, Hewitt, Diego, Patterson
ReservesBelvedere**, Mitchell, McCain, Gregory, Salazar
Sponsor:Taeshan Educators Association
Nickname(s):Miners
Offseason Moves: Bought Goalkeeper Peter Poulsen from Ojian Orangemen. Bought Right Back Kent Selis from Williams Isle.
Championships: 54, 55, 56, 57
Other Accolades: Youth Cup 5 , 8 Champs, Benevolence Bowl 19, Fadron Pizza Cup 25 Champions
Last Season Finish:1st
Team Info Taeshan City has made it four titles in a row and the team continues to be the best side in the league. Four seasons of winning is hard to continue to replicate but with a strong youth side and the money that continually winning the league brings they could continue to win the title. That said their offseason replacements lack much inspiration and the fear in the city is that they won’t be a big part of the league moving forward.

Tintown Terrapins

Ground:Tintown Stadium 23,000
Manager:Everett Swann
Colors:White and Jade
Jerseys:

Home-

Offseason Moves: Promoted youth squad members Andy Clint and Uruk Baylor. Bought Right Back Adam Baker from Yaton United.
Championships:30
Other Accolades: Fadron Pizza Cup Winners 26
Last Season Finish:13th
Team Info Tintown really hasn’t been at the height of its league status and for the most part hasn’t been pushing for any sort of top 5 spot, but they do have a lot of promising young players. With Randall Abl Bakr in the midfield there is a lot of hope in Tintown that they may be able to replicate the season they won the title.

X Island Marauders

Ground:X Island Metropark 200,000
Manager:Maxwell Flanders
Colors:Black and White
Jerseys:

Home-

Fan Support:High

Championships:14
Other Accolades:
Last Season Finish:9th
Team Info X Island has been pushing in the last few seasons and with some nice offseason moves including a young center midfielder from Audioslavia, Frederick Smith. The additions of a whole new left side also have the fans excited for the upcoming season and for the most part it seems likely that the team could push for success in the next season.

Yaton FC

Ground:Yaton Insurance Park 88,000
Manager:Anderson Jamison
Colors:Blue and Yellow
Jerseys:

Home-
Away-

Fan Support:Medium
Expectations:Avoid Relegation
Starters: Coblentz, Peterson, Ylvis, Masterson, Pruitt, Simmers, Quinones, Drake, Stuart, Grandhouse, Gomez

Offseason Moves: Bought Center Back Ken Masterson from Yaton United. Bought Left Forward Kyle Grandhouse from Ojian Orangemen.
Championships:2
Other Accolades: Youth Cup 3, 4, 7 Winners
Last Season Finish:6th
Team Info Yaton FC has turned itself into a top of the table team once again and with a strong midfield and an interesting attack, with Youth Cup wins in three seasons it is not hard to see why. If they can continue to grow they can likely fight for a title in the next few seasons and that hasn’t been seen in Yaton for 50 years.
