OOC: I'm doing this to polish up. I'm not quite as used to sports RPs as I am war and diplomacy RPs, but after reading some the WC23 threads, I get the general gist of it. Also note that I'd prefer people who've got experience, just to help me along the way. Thanks to anyone who participates.

Memorandum from Foreign ministry of the RBA

Ms. Throckspartle would be happy to bring the Two-Footers to Geisenfried for a friendly match so that your commentators may practice their craft. The side is currently competing in the Cup of Footie Harmony, but expect to be eliminated from that esteemed tourney in a few days' time. Please let us know if you are interested in a match.
