Any more divisional play would have been lopsided and three weeks of random play should keep everyone interested. The three weeks of interdivisional play were done by a COMPLETELY RANDOM draw. I did not attempt to schedule one game from each division as we have gone with a complete restructuring and I felt play should reflect this complete scramble of divisions. I am, of course, open to discussion if anyone feels this does not adequately serve the needs of the league and competitiveness in general. I do not feel this random draw does anything but encourage a spirited season. The season starts with divisional play and alternates with interdivisional play until the last two weeks. Hopefully the last two weeks should supply some races. The schedule is as follows... look it over and email me any problems. Yes, it's late and there may be a few goofs, but it should be 90% kosher and if there are interdivisional goofs I can fix that. Week One (Divisional Play) Amsterdam Ice Nine Vs.
