In a one-by-one alternating fashion, each captain will draft the player he wants to add to his own team. There will be a total of 14 players per team (10 starters, 4 alternates). The player pool of eligible draftees will be all who sign up using the link below Whoever wants to play in these matches can sign up, whether they're from North America, Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, or wherever, and whether they are active or haven't played in years. Come out and find out which team you'll play for and with what number pick you were drafted! After a player is drafted, he can join the team with his captain.
