The second annual Tournament of Champions will begin in January 2023. Last year's contest was a nice way for folks to get to know owners they didn't know around the site, a way to introduce some different ways of playing CSFBL, and a way for us to say thanks to our loyal users with a good ol' prize - $250 and a very nice Championship Ring.

2022 Tournament Format
Brief details:
- Season begins with a full serpentine draft of players to try to give everyone as close to a level playing field as possible - Expect drafts to take about a week to complete, with each owner usually making multiple picks a day. We will help facilitate these drafts to the best of our abilities. We all have busy lives, but to ensure the draft is not delayed endlessly by inattentive owners, we will use a 12 hour maximum clock before an auto-pick is assigned, and three infractions will result in the owner being replaced by the next person on the entry list. The reason that leagues are limited to 8 managers each is to keep the drafts a manageable length. - No trading or free agency involved - draft your team, run your team, bing bang boom.
More details to come as we get closer to the tournament.
