LAOUT is excited to be back with Summer League. Keeping up with past seasons, this year’s theme will be “Fictional Companies”! Whether it’s booster cleats from Acme Corp., coming up with defensive strategies from Wayne Industries, or celebrating games with some candy from Wonka Industries, we hope you spend the summer building synergies and building out your product lines!
Registration Deadline: June 1st
Draft: TBD
League: June 8th – August 17th
Tournament: August 23rd
Potential Field Venues & Nights:
- TBD
*Teams generally play one game a week (there may be 1-2 bye weeks); specific nights & venues are not guaranteed*
Mixed League
- The format will be 6 v 6 with the ratio always as 3 FMP and 3 MMP on the field.
- The number of MMP and FMP will be the same in each team.
- MMP can play in the Mixed division in the following ways:
- Baggaging with FMP
- MMP who had to play Men’s for the past two leagues (Winter and last year’s Summer League)
- Lottery: randomly selected from a pool depending on the number of MMP spots available in the Mixed division.
Men’s League
- The format will be 6 v 6.
- We will prioritize having enough players on each team over the number of teams. Enough players will be having ~ 18 players on each team (which equates to about 3 lines)
Full Rules and Regulations can be found here. Special Power rules will be updated closer to league start
Baggage Policy
- Only two people can baggage together
- Captains cannot baggage with another player unless this player is a new player
- Baggage is only for people with children or who are carpooling from the same neighborhood with the following exceptions and limitations:
- Short of living with one another, we strongly recommend avoiding a baggage that results in two round 1 players* being paired together
- FMP can baggage with any MMP; this MMP bypasses the lottery
- You can always email the Commish to clarify if your baggage seems fair or to ask for an exception: summer-commish@laout.org. It is up to the discretion of the commissioner to make the determination.
*If you self rank yourself as a 7.5+ out of 10 in the LAOUT player landscape, you’re likely a round 1 player.
