Agreed 4x4, it is the highlight of our teams year, and we also play in another "high calibre" league that isn't nearly as fun.
A couple other notes. For those that want to sub only, that is good to know for whomever does end up captaining a team. We carry 7 guys and 5 girls full time, but have a good list of others that we can call when necessary, and that happens!
I might be able to squeeze in two teams this year, don't know yet as we are just getting confirmation of all returnees. So far every team has indicated they are coming back. We can expand, but then getting suitable diamonds becomes a problem.... one that I have to deal with, but am certainly happy to do so if the league benefits from having two new fun teams.
This thread is VERY timely as most leagues are gearing up for next summer already. Our league has already booked our diamonds and booked Lyalta and Drumheller. Having a long track record of returnees certainly helps me to be able to commit to those this early.
