Is there any interest from people in taking part in a new keeper league??

Season starts in 8 days so obviously need to gage interest pretty sharp?

Entry £25 with £20 going into the prize pool and £5 being a deposit on the team for next year? (welcome any suggestions on entry fee if people aren't happy)

What's a keeper league. I'm in if there's not too much work involved during the season.

Keeper Leagues
A keeper league is sort of a combination between a standard draft league and a dynasty league. Each preseason, most of the players are drafted, however, owners are allowed to keep a predetermined number of players on their roster from the year before. Most league rules allow only a handful of players to be retained by each team from year to year.

Do you have trades and stuff like that during the season or just at the end of the season?
Report Violencia Fantastico Retardo September 2, 2011 9:18 PM BST
That would be up to the league owner (buckio3) when he is setting the league up.

Ah count me in anyway, you learn faster when you're losing money!

Ok so I make that 5

There would be trades during the season as normal.

Open to doing it as an auction or a draft penalties on keepers would probably be 10% rounded up if we go with and auction or if we go with a snake go for a 1 round penalty.

Amount of keepers would be between 3-5 depending on number of teams and other peoples thoughts.

Only thing I feel strongly on is that the waiver system is FAAB which would process on the Thursday morning and
again on a Sunday to ensure players can be brought in before game days.

Any advice from current keeper league owners is welcome even if they aren't interested in joining the league!

I'd be up for it too, (and know another owner from the Auction League that'd probably take part.
Report Buckio3 September 4, 2011 8:40 AM BST
Ok that is 6 maybe 7

Draft would have to be Wednesday if we want it before the start of the season as there are currently betfair drafts on Monday and Tuesday

think we need 10 to make it worthwile!
