Seems like a good time to start the 2nd edition of the World Lacrosse Championships, pending enough interest. A minimum of eight signups will be needed to get the competition underway.

I will host the competition, scorinating with a spreadsheet program I have used previously within my region for lacrosse events. Lacrosse is one of the biggest sports in Newmanistan, with your host someone who actively plays it in the real world! If anyone else also wishes to host the competition, they are more then welcome to bid, and we will have a vote on the matter.

At present, we have twelve signups, beating the minimum of eight! Sign ups will remain open until September 27th.

Sign ups:
1) Newmanistan
2) Secristan
3) Land de Wood
4) Kura-Pelland
5) The Republic of Colbourne
6) Lovisa
7) Taeshan
8) Kenavt
9) Myedvedeya
10) Dancougar
11) Greal
12) Tortuga y Hispaniola
13) Miroxia

Land de Wood sign up to compete in the 2nd World Lacrosse Championships.
After our heroic efforts last time out our brave Woodpeckers will be aiming to win the competition this time.
Just think last time, barely anyone in Land de Wood knew what the game was, now we have a number of our stars playing abroad and actually know a little about the sport. This time we could be world champions!

Land de Wood Sports minor sports news

The recently set up National Lacrosse Association hereafter referred to as the NLA are delighted to see that so far 9 teams have signed up.

As well as six teams returning from the 1st World Lacrosse Championships, we are delighted to see three new comers:
The Republic of Colbourne
Kenavt
Myedvedeya

The question is where are
Kereca
Zongguo
Nuevos Aires
Vephrall

Have they got bored of this sport so soon? Have they selfcombusted?
Are there any other newcomers?

We also wait to here if the teams will be seeded based on their performances last time out and what bearing these rankings will have. We await further news from the proposed hosts Newmanistan who having won the competition last time in Kura-Pelland, beating us in the final.

The rankings from the first WLC will be used in determining the group draw, and they will have a very minor influence in MD1 scorination. It will be all about the RP. Much like the Di Bradini Cup.

Signups through Tortuga y Hispaniola have been noted! We're at 12 and looking good. Signups close on the 27th.
