League Champions and Promotion/Relegation An exciting final two matchdays has been played and congratulations are sent out to
for winning both Division 1 and the SSL Cup becoming the second team in the league history to win both trophies in one season. Congratulations also to 
for winning Division 2 and to 
for joining in the promotion to the first division for S6. On the other side, two teams, 
and 
, will be relegated to Division 2 for the next season.New for this season is that there is a trophy handed out to the winner of Division 2, with a design courtesy of @Bayley :
S5 Off-season Per the SSL Calendar, the final week of the season is designated as the off-season, officially starting on Monday at midnight PST. There are a couple of things that are important to remember about the off-season that we want to summarize here. Please see the relevant parts of the Rulebook for more details.
Pending FA period
Any player that is on an expiring contract (no contract signed for S6) is considered a pending free agent. During the off-season teams may contact a pending FA and negotiate a contract. The player is not a free agent until the start of the next season (September 26) thus they may still sign an extension with their current team during the week without reducing the team's transfer budget. We just make to make one thing clear: A manager may not force a player to provide intent to sign. This week is intended for players to be able to talk to teams and be shown alternatives for how their future may look.
Re-rolls and Redistribution
S4 (last chance) and S5 players may re-roll their player during this off-season.
This is also the last week when S5 players may redistribute 100 TPE and/or their entire positional XP. S5 goaltenders may also use this redistribution to conduct a full re-roll to an outfield player.
S6 Prospect Draft
We are also gearing up for the SSL Prospect that is scheduled for Saturday the 24th of September at 13 EST. More information and a dedicated link to the draft list is going to be published during next week.
Canadice and the BoD.
