anything that caps the number of players that can enter/contribute, would be against the APAT ethos, and detrimental to the over-riding requirement to attract new players.

defo disagree with this , it would not stop players joining in etc cos the top players would change prob every week and would encourage competition within the team aswell as playing as a team.
It does not cap the players that can enter . and the contirbutions would be there after 1 result (they would be in top of their team) all this would stop is team with higher volume of players would not have an advantage.

I may be wrong here but isn"t the current scoring system a case of - If a player finishes in 1st place in a league match his team could still end up scoring 0 pts. If this is the case then imo this has to change, but as I say I may not be up to date with the current scoring system.

Yes a player can come first and score no points for team , but under current scoring system it is far less likely . Its 25 points for win then 22 20 etc . it used to be 9 , 8 ,7 ,6 etc

What is wrong with?
W Mids
E Mids
N West
N East
Ireland
S and S West
London and S East
East
Wales
Scotland
10 teams, one division. Gives each of those 10 teams a good crack at equal-ish numbers
Either 3 six week leagues or one big league
Team and Individual added value
I know you"d lose some team identity, but at least the smaller teams get put into groupings that have a chance....
(not an official view, nor a formal proposal, just throwing it out there)

This works for me, providing I can play for Scotland ;D
3 six week leagues is better than 1 big league IMO. As others have said it helps regenerate interest at the start of each league.

Again, just thinking out loud
3 six week leagues
At the end of Each Six week league
- the winning team wins a spot in the UK Team Championships that season
- The top player (irrespective of team) wins (UKIPT seat) (GUKPT seat) whatever added value is part of season 6
- The top x players win UK APAT National entries
- Top 25 finishing positions are scored for individuals in each of the six weeks, and all teams accrue points on a weekly basis
After three leagues three teams have qualified for the team championships
The top scoring team of those three in the team event then gets a play off where all those who have played events in their team are eligible, the winner within that team wins a (UKIPT seat)
Anyway, you get a measure of what can be done here to keep things competitive, address imbalances etc etc
Des and I need to discuss, clearly
A season 6 schedule is drafted, meetings are taking place imminently and Online national league will be part of those discussions

This looks great.
The playoff idea could be a bit unfair however if one player has played all the events and done well has an equal chance as the player who played once and didn"t score. Maybe different staring stacks (if software allows). or top point scorer in the team wins the seat and winnings are split in proportion to points. ???
