[Canadice]

Organizational Manager for Expansion Organization

As announced here, we are now announcing the opening of at least two (2) and at most four (4) Expansion Manager positions.

If you are interested in applying for an Organizational Manager (OM) position for a new organization, please read this post in its entirety.

Make sure that you have talked to and received permission from your current Organizational Manager before applying!

If you want to apply for an expansion organization together with one (1) Assistant Manager (AM), you may do so ONLY if the co-applicant also has first talked to and received permission from their current organizational manager to both talk to another user AND apply for expansion. If permission is not granted, you may not apply together.

If you are an S26 Academy player, please be clear in scouting conversations of your interest in applying as an OM or AM. If you are an S27 Academy player, you do not need permission from anyone to apply.

Expansion Managers in the Drafts
The Expansion Draft will see 1 player or pick package move from each organization to each expansion organization.

Expansion OMs are drafted automatically as the representative from an organization. As such no other player may be picked from the same organization by that expansion.

Expansion AMs are drafted in the 2nd round of the Expansion Draft. If the Expansion AM is from same organization as the Expansion OM, the organization receives the expansion organization's 2nd round pick in the S27 Prospect Draft.

If the expansion OM is an Academy player in the S27 Prospect Draft, they must be drafted with pick 15/16.

If the expansion AM is an Academy player in the S27 Prospect Draft, they must be drafted with any 1st round pick.

The image below shows the current placement of the Major and Minor teams.



Areas with large population centers or a known football culture that currently is lacking representation in the SSL will be favored by the BoD.
