Road to the NAFC 2016
The first Online NAF tournament of 2016 is to be an old favourite, as we once again travel the Road to the NAF Championship! The FUMBBL tournament will kick off on Monday January 18th, and once again you can win your ticket to the NAFC (or other NAF Major of your choosing - see below) along with some other NAFC goodies.
The rulespack for our tournament can be found
here, and
here, and is summarised below.
The
group page has an FAQ section, and you can ask any questions below. I hope you'll make 2016 the year where you join us in playing Online NAF tournaments!

NAFC Reminder
Full NAF Championship details can be found via the
rulespack, or by contacting Joemanji via the NAF site or TalkFantasyFootball. If you’d like to attend this year, hurry! There is a £5 early bird saving and a reduced rate available at the convenient, on site hotel should you buy your ticket before the end of January!
You can also ask any questions below, I should be able to answer most things. If you are umming and ahhring about joining us for a tabletop tournament, you could do an awful lot worse than breaking your duck with the big one! :)
Team Acceptance to the Group
I will begin to accept teams to the group on Jan. 11th, and then every other day thereafter. Please don't worry if you don't see your team in the group before the 11th, it'll come! :P
Cheers,
Phil / Goo.
