American TT Coaches: come for the virus, stay for ...
the NCBB!
NCBB is a long-running, storied league aimed at an Americas-time audience. Coaches on other continents are welcome too, if you can game between 00:00 and 06:00 server.
We will be starting our 35th season soon, and our rookie division is open to all who want to play.
What We Offer:
1) a NCAA spoof atmosphere with silly takes on NCAA teams;
2) a laid-back environment, full of bowl games, coach's polls, and whatnot;
3) a special conference just for new teams, so you don't get creamed right out the gate;
4) a strong sense of history and continuity, via tie-ins to the 32-team invitational NBFL;
5) a great mix of experience, as new coaches mingle with seasoned old-timers.
Special Rules:
1) we play 9-10 games per season with a four-team playoff and bowl games afterward;
2) after 4 seasons your players retire (graduate), and go on to play in the NBFL, by way of a draft;
3) no Wizards, except in "rivalry" games;
4) limit 4 fouls per game, except in "rivalry" games.
Sound like fun? Let commissioner Ex-Convict know what school you'd want to represent, and we'll go from there!

Is it US only? :)

Hoellenbote, No, it's not US only, but it is a USTZ based league. So if you live in Europe, you'll need to work around everyone else as you'll be the odd person out.

Hoellenbote: The timezone regions for many leagues are guidelines to improve gameplay for coaches... so you don't have to get up at crazy times to play. (And if you're looking for a league (not just in the Americas time), there is a list of many here: https://fumbbl.com/help:JoinLeague )
That said... NCBB is more fun than a barrel full of nurgle-rot infested simyins.

That link should be pinned somewhere on the webpage. Thanks Razmus!

It's actually a link from the main Help page under the text - "How to join a League". :-)

You don't need to be an American (in any sense) to play, but you do have to be willing to play in the Americas-time evening hours. We have, or have had, coaches from Canada to Argentina, as well as Europe, Australia, and the Far East. But the Brits/Euros gotta be night owls, and the Aussies have to be cool with gaming on the workday.
