[BECOMING A PLAYER]:
Becoming a player can be fairly easy. Just by joining the LFL, you've opened yourself up to many opportunities and options to choose from. A great way to get onto a team is to regularly check the group shout for any tryouts being hosted by teams.
●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●
[BECOMING A COACH]:
To become a coach, you must already be somewhat known in the LFL. Being a trusted player or board member definitely helps your case. You could also become an Assistant Coach which is elected by the Head Coach, which also gives you abilities to control the team as well.
●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●
[PROVISIONS OF JOINING A TEAM]:
By joining a team you are NOT allowed to join any other teams. You cannot play for any other team besides the team you're apart of. Coaches can always retire and hand off their job to their trusted Assistant Coaches, or ask the Commissioner to have an application trial.
●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●
[LEAVING ILLEGALLY]:
A player is NOT allowed to leave a team without being released or traded by the Head Coach only. If a player is caught doing this and reported to a Commissioner, the player will be put on a 3 game suspension wherever they may land in their new team. However, if a player is to leave and the incident is not reported within a week, the player is set free and can join any team of their liking. But, if you don't like the team your on, don't accept an offer.
●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●
[TEAM ROSTER]:
Teams are allowed to accommodate up to 30 players on their roster and only up to 7 coaches. Recommended: 4 AC's, 2 Coordinators, 1 Assistant Head Coach. Coaches may play.
