Sixes League Staff Changes

In case you missed it, late last year we welcomed Celph and Hawk to the Sixes team. We now have two new additions to the team, emgee and HUNGRY.4.EGGS. Both players bring with them a wealth of experience, and their inclusions reflects our continued commitment to bolstering the Sixes Admin team in preparation for a big 2024. We do, however, say goodbye to a team of ants in his prime who is stepping down. ants has contributed tremendously to the league, including his stint as the Head Sixes Admin, and we thank him for all his hard work.

The Sixes Autumn ‘24 Admin Team is:

Head Sixes Admin: multi

Upper Division (Premier/High) Admins:

• emgee
• Hawk
• wils

Lower Division (Intermediate/Main/Open) Admins:

• Celph
• down
• HUNGRY.4.EGGS
• Raina

Art Team Changes

We would also like to welcome dezi to the Art Team! He has been hard at work on our Spring ‘23 Awards, and we’re excited to show off his hard work soon.

With bigger events planned this year and beyond, expanding our Art Team with talented artists and designers will be crucial. We are blessed to have so many artistic individuals in our community, so if that’s you apply for the Art Team here.
