On behalf of the Committee, I would like to invite you to nominate yourself to be part of Team England. Please do not nominate others. Ensure that you will meet the qualifying criteria, both the need to be an English NAF member, and to have played 25 games since May 1 2019. Since I have moved selection earlier to enable coaches to have time to make arrangements (and also to organise a EurOpen Team - more on that later) I will accept nominations from coaches who know that they will have played 25 games by April 30 2020.Team England Charter wrote:6. The English Eurobowl Team
In order to be picked for the English Eurobowl Team, coaches must be English NAF members who have played at least 25 non-variant tabletop NAF games in the year-long qualifying period prior to selection.
The qualifying period is May 1st to April 30th in the 12 months prior to the team being announced.
The committee will invite individuals to come forward and hold a list of eligible coaches.
Regarding national eligibility, Team England will follow rules or guidelines set out by the Eurobowl Committee. If the rules or guidelines are not clear in a particular circumstance then the committee will make a ruling.
7. Eurobowl Team Selection
The English Eurobowl Team Captain picks the team subjectively. Choices are guided by soft principles of selection which are not absolute. The principles are: Participation in tournaments, Contribution to the community and Gaming Skill. It is also preferable for players to have attended a tournament in Europe before being selected. Players should play fair and uphold the spirit of the Eurobowl tournament.
Nomination Process
Please could you reply publicly in this thread stating "I would like to be considered for Team England 2020".
In addition, I would like you to complete the following googleform, which will give me your preferred contact information, and also give me some information about which teams you would like to potentially use, and that you feel will be competitive within the ruleset.
https://forms.gle/1idsqV1DY6Rrjdvm9
I will be looking for a proven recent track record of successful bloodbowl against top-quality European coaches.
Timeline:
Deadline to put yourself forward: midnight Sunday 12 January 2020 (at the end of the UKTC).
I will contact all nominees, and announce the team by Sunday 19th January.
EurOpen
During the next 3 weeks, the EuroBowl Committee will be discussing how the official Team England EurOpen team will work, using the feedback already provided in the threads in this Forum. As I stated in the Q&A thread, I would like to see the official TE EurOpen team be a potential route into the EuroBowl team, and fully included in planning, discussions etc. Following the Team announcement, I hope to spend 3 weeks formalising the EurOpen team to give people plenty of time to plan their lives.
Please share this forum with anyone whom you think might be interested in being part of Team England, but will not see it otherwise, including on social media, but they will need to sign up here on TFF.
