It could work, in the north you can see the Universal Stable can field 2 - 3 5man teams no bother, DV8 are what 15 players strong? Dead On Arrival have 9players on their squad, Vudoo could easily pull in players from the NSPA squad...

Am sure many other teams could make it happen, the question is how many want it to happen? You can only afford to play so many tournies a month and what tournies would be sacrificed by the teams?

Everyone enjoys their comfort zone and very few enjoy change.... Personally I think 7 man and 3 man are the best two formats, but that is just my opinion.

errr the dedicated ones?
exactly, dedicated teams, there are plenty of teams which would go for 7man, and there are far too many tourney events (with the same 5man teams) in the UK. Teams with loads of players should go for both and have dedicated x-ball and 7man teams. Dedication is what we need, dedication to a format, not to a tourney.

Agreed. 7 man is still the best format to play for the majority of recreational teams in the UK.

I think it is a massive shame that Millenium has dropped it to be honest.

How many UK teams can maintain 7 players all season?
Just a thought:cool:
the scene could barely support the 7man masters and if the millennium polled their teams and found they wanted xball, who would play it? can't comment on the nspl though

too many tournies in uk so why have another, that also goes for formats we need one format and one league,plus it,s easier to get five commited players than 7.know you guys know why people are going back to the woods too much bullsh*t

maybe one 7man division at the 5man tourneys or something like that, but the 7man tourneys can't have been viable for wendy to cancel them?
