Millenium series/campaign cup??

[MDJMckeown]

Hi all, been playing domestically for a while now but have never understood how the Millenium series/campaign cup work and what they actually are. The millenium website sheds no information on what it is?
Sorry if this sounds silly, ive just never been able to get my head around what each tournament is.
Any help appreactiated
Thanks

European series.

March: St. Tropez, France
May: Bitburg, Germany
June/July: London, UK (Campaign Cup)
October: Paris, France (World Cup)

Four tournaments, with divisions:

CPL (Likes of Nexus, San Diego Dynasty, Art Chaos Moscow, and this year TB Damage)
SPL (Birmingham Disruption and London Tigers are in this division)
Div 1
Div 2
Div 3 and so on depending on how 'good' your team is.

First second and third place for each leg, but also an overall ranking at the end of Paris, because you score points depending on where you come at the end of each event which add up as the events take place.

The Campaign cup was a stand-alone tournament ran by Niall Squires and had been held every year from about the early nineties ... when the Millennium series was created, Niall was one of the original four with the others being Steve Baldwin, Mannfred Ulrich andLaurent.
The Campaign cup soon became integrated with the series of events the Millenium held and became the English leg of the Millennium series with the other events of the MS being held in other countries.
They still call the English leg of the Millenium Series the Campaign Cup but that has really been integrated into one of the MS events.

Aye, that's a point worth noting. A good few UK domestic teams enter into the Campaign cup leg for the Mills but no others. So if you're interested in seeing what the atmosphere is like then I'm sure you can find a team that needs a player.
