We will allow for late signups, but we have set an early signups close date to allow us more time to confidently seed teams internally. Please reach out to us prior to signups closing so we know to expect your roster!

By signing up, you acknowledge that you may be placed in any division the administrators deem fit for your roster, and thus your entire team should be reasonable in their expectations on division placement. We will endeavour to let teams know of changes in initial seedings before the final release. Please ensure you specify the division you truly believe your team should be in, making it easier for administrators to consult with you on your seeding. Along with selecting your desired division, please also list who you expect to play, and what class/role. We have a template below, please include your completed template in your signup application OR YOUR APPLICATION WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
