Press Announcements

Season 19 Preview


Season starting rosters have been set and we will play our first game tonight. Let me take a few minutes to share our schedule with you and a few thoughts on our prospects this season for the #73 Ranked Nippon National team.

Schedule

Feb 20 - #18 Philippines
Feb 27 - #38 Australia
Mar 5 - #42 Malaysia
Mar 12 - #71 India
Mar 19 – BYE
Mar 26 - #92 Pakistan
Apr 2 - #91 Macau

All games begin a 7:30PM in Japan.

I think the schedule sets up in our favor. We will face a tough first 3 games and will be expected to go 0-3 to start out. However, this also gives us a few weeks to get more familiar with the team to set up for the crucial second three games. The last three are all winnable games and if we can win them all to finish 3-3 then we could advance to the second round. Advancing would be a great success for a team that has struggled in recent years and is currently 73rd ranked.

Additional focus for this season will be developing for our future. I will be focusing a lot of effort this season on our prospects and working to make sure those players are getting developed. I’ve started sending emails overnight to some of the managers (thanks to my jet lag) and will continue emailing throughout the week. If you player was listed on of the lists shared in my forum posts ((210311.21), (210311.31)) then you can expect an email from me soon.
