Group Restrictions: | The only restrictions HUBBA places on teams is that no games may be played outside the League. |
Group Time Zone: | HUBBA is a European based league. All coaches are expected to be able to play
during 1800-2300 server time (GMT+1) but provided both parties agree any time may be scheduled. Only game offers with reasonable times will be taken into account for forfeit decisions |
Game Frequency: | Games are to be played according to the schedule - 1 game/10 days - though a rolling
schedule is in place, if you are able to play ahead then feel free to do so. Extensions will be given where possible to cover holidays and the like based upon a reasonable amount of time and notice. |
Game Etiquette: | There are no restrictions placed upon team tactics. Teams may purchase wizards,
hire stars, foul etc... |
Season Format: | Pre-Season: 1 Friendly may be played (3 for new teams), The season (7 games), Award Ceremony, Hubba Bowl (Ko cup). |
League Scoring: | 3 pts for a win, 1 for a draw and 0 for a loss. You may also be deducted points for conceding. This is down to admin discretion.
If two teams end the season with the same amount of points then Td-difference will decide their overall finishing position, if the teams are still tied then Cas-difference will also be used. In the event of a tie under all these conditions then head to head record and finally a coin flip will be used |
Friendlies: | Friendlies will be playable between the Hubba Bowl and the start of the new season, you may only play a friendly once this has been announced by the staff, and the friendlies must be played by the deadline given. |
Promotion and Relegation: | At the end of each season the two teams with the highest points total are promoted to the division above, the teams in third and fourth place in each league will have a play-off to see who gets promoted. The bottom 3 teams in the top division will be relegated to the division below.
Exceptions will be made for coaches that have dropped out etc... |
Drop outs, retirements and replacements: | We kindly ask that you do not drop out of the league or retire your team during a tournament (be that league or cup). Drop outs will not be allowed back into this group and potentially others. If a team has become wholly unplayable and must be retired then, if feasible, the coach can create another team - but even so we urge the coach to persevere until at least the end of the current tournament. |
