In this league, the drafted teams will compete to become a dynasty with two seasons built into one. The first half of the season consists of player evaluations and 12 games. The team that wins the first mini season will then stay together for season 2 (12 more games), while all the remaining players go back into the draft pool, to be redrafted, in an attempt to dethrone the current champs seeking the title of a dynasty. As league owner and convenor, I oversee player registrations, evaluations, content, graphics, social media, stats, collection of individual fees, sponsorships, prizing, covid screening, schedules and all league communication.
