All Time Tennis: Draft!

[Torpedo10]

Hey All,

I started thinking, we have 4 fantasy footy drafts, 1 AFL draft and now a NBA draft....Why not a tennis draft? 2 drafts, A men's & women's draft. I am hoping to get 6 entries so we could have 15 rounds for men's draft and 15 rounds for women's draft. The draft's will be randomized by random.org. There will be 3 Eras. 1950 & U, 1951 - 1980 & 1981 - 2012. In each draft you will draft 15 players. Only rule is you need 5 from each era except era 1 which you only need 2 players from. you can use the extra 3 players from any of the 2nd or 3rd era.. It will all be one draft.  Further details will be explained once coaches are confirmed. c4v3m4n, Sid and I are the current judges. judges will be confirmed when the coaches are. If you are involved in this and are a judge you can't vote for your team. that will be decided by the other judges. Please register your interest here. From when you are online you will have 3 hours to pick.In total you have 15 Hours to pick after the last pick was taken. In the mens draft you need 5 players from  Eras 1 & 2 and atleast 2 from Era 1. If you want you can pick 5 players from Era 1 but you have to choose 5 from Era 1 & 2 also.  If you do not follow these guidelines you will have to pick another player in the required era at the END of the draft.Players will be rated how they played in their PRIME. Variety and Balance in your team will be a main factor in how the judges rate the teams.
