Dateline: August 30, 2015
Emerald Specter.com is proud to announce the formation of the Emerald Specter Premier League, which will begin play in 2016 right here on Emerald Specter.com. The league will be launched with 12 inaugural teams, with expansion possible as early as 2017, and all the action will be presented online.
The 12 inaugural teams are (in alphabetical order):
Allen FC
Emerald United
Gothica
Halo
Knightsquare
Naval Armada FC
Real Olympia
Shamrock Celtic FC
Shazam CM
Sporting Black Cats
Vulcan FC
Wordsmiths
These are the clubs that will grace the league for the first season and the march towards the Emerald Cup. The competition will be in the tradition of the world leagues, where each club will take on every other club twice: once at home and once away. The winner will receive 3 points, draws will award 1 point per club, and no points will be awarded for the loser. The club that accumulates the most points by the end of the season wins the Emerald Cup.
More details will come, check back (and keep an eye on the Emerald Specter.com blog for more).
