Hey Guys. Though I'd post this on here as it's a very good way to win prizes. It's not only a Knockout cup, it's also so a Youth pull comp.
Knockout Comp
If you win the Knockout comp, you'll win 64 days membership with runner up winning 32. However there are some expectations and rules. I'll post them at the end.
Youth Pull Comp
All you have to do is pull 1 Kenyan during the comp, regardless if you are still in or knocked out. All your pulls must stay in your squad until the final as the big prize is 9 Months Membership, yep that's 9 Months Membership for the highest total ratings of all of your youth pulls ( For example if you have 2 pulls of 20,000 your rating will be 40,000).
FINAL RULES
1.U24 only with at least 2 youth players
2.Must pull at least one Kenyan during the tournament (but see 5)
3.Must play at least one Kenyan in round 1
4.Must play at least 2 Kenyans in the 2nd and subsequent rounds (Which probably means you will need to pull Kenyan at least twice.
5.9 months membership for the highest total rating of Kenyan youths pulled during the tournament
6.Kenyan pulls from 25 April 2011 to the Monday before the final and remaining in your squad when the final is played are eligible, ratings will be taken from the day of the final.

I can't join the knockout comp as I don't think I could field a U24 league. I may do the YP comp.

I think you have to be in the Knockout Cup to be in the YP comp though. I'm not too sure. Ask a question in the Discussion thread you'll get an answer.
It doesn't start till a few weeks I'm sure you could just play a few extra youths and maybe buy a 20/21 yo?
Giants Cup > This.

Wait but isn't Giants Cup on Sundays?

Giants Cup is on Sundays... Right?
Neither can I. I am a part of the Scots/Irish Knockout Cup
Giants Cup is on Sundays. So I'm sure a few of you can do it.
Well the teams I know can't do it for certain apart from me and shaggy are:

This format could suit me ... only problem is I don't have any Kenyan's.
Q - A quick question. If I pull a crappy kenyan (or 2) can I just bat them at 10 & 11 and not bowl them at all, allowing for my better players to play key roles in the outcome of the match?

Of course. You've got a few weeks till the comp to pull, or just pull in Week 1 & 2 then you meet the requirements. If you really want to win you could even buy a young Kenyan which could give you a stronger team then just playing a very bad youth pull because you have no one else.

Yeah I thought about buying a young Kenyan, but I just had a look at the TM and there are no good ones listed. If I was to be eligible to enter, it would have to be via youth pulls.

There should be at least 1 good kenyan on the market from now till the start of the comp. Are you entering Baz?
OK I will enter :)
I will get smashed by stronger teams though :P

I'm on the lookout for 20/21 year olds I must admit. Then I would have 3, and have to play 8 youths :P The majority of my players are 24/25/26.

Why don't you just enter, and just play your normal team with a Kenyan (even if that means your normal youth team + a kenyan) and just try and win the YP comp. I think it's pretty easy to win.

If you are looking for a community to Kenya is great, and this is a good opportunity to get involved and get noticed.
I'll just be putting myself back if I join a new community as i am known in Canada already, though if I could get an assistants role in Kenya Id take it for experience.

How many times do I have to tell you, YOU NEED MORE THAN 25 POSTS! lol
Don't worry I'll have 1k+ posts in two seasons :)
::) You wish man :P
Actually you may be right I have no idea where to start posting there.
Haha ;D I'm about to clock 300 posts I think..
I have bad posters block...
i cant do it due to Canadian cup. But my team would be pretty good since i have two good kenyans in seniors

If you can't do it cookie, why did you put in an entry request ???
i am seeing if i am avaliable but i think may just be missing out cause canucks cup goes one week after the start i am prety sure
Entries close soon so make your mind up boys. Think it closes tomorrow but not sure have to check...
This is going to be mine:
1. ???
2. ???
3. Hugh McInnes (Accom/Exp batsman) 20 yrs
4. Darweshi Mau? (on the market atm, Accom/Exp batsman) 20 yrs. Kenyan, not that I really need to buy one, I may play my Kenyan youths
5. ???
6. Kai Athans (Keeper) 19 yrs
7. ???
8. Geddy Lee? (on the market atm, Outs/Outs RWS) 23 yrs
9. Ger O'Niell (Bowler) 19 yrs
10. Adam Teakles (Outs/Exp bowler) 21 yrs
11. some youth
So very weakened team! :o May need to go and buy some 22/23 year olds, on the search for 20/21 year olds anyway though.
This is my team for Round 1 (ATM). It's pretty much the same as usual. (XI = They are in my usual XI)
1.
2. Lansing *NED* 23 XI
3. Puja *IND* 22 XI
4. Perice *WI* 21 XI
5. Mordt *ZIMB* 19 XI - Youth
6. de Bruin *RSA* 21 XI (Most of the time)
7.
8. Alleyne *WI* 22 XI
9. Affonso *BERM* 22 XI
10. Wainwright *NZ*
11. Hemming *ZIMB* 24 XI
That's actually perfect, I've 2 Free spots with a Youth already in the team (in Mordt). Only problem is I don't have a Senior Kenyan besided Menza who is 25. I've got lots of Kenyans Youths, with 1 of them probably going to get a call up to U19 Level, Karari Sheikh so I think I'll put him at No.7 as a bowler. Then I can just put anyone I want at No.1.
Can you play 24yr olds?
Yeh U24 means 24 and under.
This wouldve been my team if i couldve entered :(
1. Percy McDowall *AUS* 22 XI
2. Padman Arnold *SL* 18
3. Jan-Ruben De Rooy *NED* 22 XI
4. Murray Scott *AUS* 22 XI
5. Roy Malcolm *BERM* 21
6. Ethan Burke *CAN* 22 XI
7. Chitundu Pilliani *KEN* 24 XI
8. Eustance Wilson *AUS* 22 XI
9. Klaas-Jan Stam *NED* 21 XI
10.
11. Chris Majorbanks *ENG* 22 XI
In 10 it wouldve been Batty or Ali both 19, dpending on the wicket.
So i wouldve fielded a pretty strong side IMO.
My team is strong now I can play 24yr olds. :)
This is going to be my team for the tournament.
1. Charlie Franklyn (Outs/Exp Batsman) 21yrs *SRI*
2. ?
3. Drew Currie (Spec/Outs Batsman) 23yrs *SAF* XI
4. D.Sweeney (Outs/Outs Batsman) 24yrs *CAN* XI
5. ?
6. ?
7. Samir Najeeb (Cap/Acc/Acc All-rounder) 21yrs *UAE*
8. Hyppi van der Mashervar (Reas/Reli/Reli All-rounder) 20yrs *NETH*
9. Kerry Armstrong (Spec/Spec Fast Bowler) 24yrs *ENG*
10. Sena Anuradha (Spec/Outs Spin Bowler) 23yrs *SRI*
11. Rafa Van Winden (Acc/Acc Fast Bowler) 20yrs *NETH*
Need to buy 3 Youths which are Okay? May buy a few 18 yrs olds.
my team if i can enter
1.Steve Watt Acc/Rel 20
2. Scott Walker Rel/Reas 19
3.Tunely Maynard Spec/Out 23
4.Lyndon Neal Out/Exp 21
5.Ambrose Hussey Reas/Avg 16
6.Dwayne Burton Rel/Expert/Out 23
7.Evon Jumadeen Acc/Expert/Expert Keeper 24
8.Mohammad Zarar Out/Out 24
9.Dogo Lostwallet Out/Out 22 Kenya
10.Shofi Ashraful Cap/Cap 19
11.William Herft Cap/Cap 19
Not strongest side but still pretty damn good

Yeh but your the last to drive and you are the youngest. I'm born in Jan, so take that 8)
Yep. I'm always the youngest but I'm a tall guy. 177cm at 13. 8)
If you are tall at 13 doesn't mean you'll be tall when you are older ;) Are your parents tall?
Yes. 194cm and 181cm. I hope I will be 190cm, probably more though. :'(
Btw R&B was it 8th December for birthday?
9th. Were you the 8th? :o
Back on topic.
RB - Yes.
Really need to buy two decent Youths for this comp and a Kenyan. :( May use the Kenyan I pull this week.

Wow!
I've got two Kenyan youths, but not sure if they are worthy of playing... :-\
Im 12 and turning 13 in june and in yr 8, so boom.
You're 12? I thought you were 13...jeesus you are young!
nah :P
Well this is my team, similar to the usual mob.
1. Gregory O'Meagher *AUS* *U19*
2. Daniachew Murubi *KEN* *U19*
3. Shamim Otieno *KEN* XI
4. Willow Shagmeister *ENG* XI
5. Drew Currie *RSA* XI
6. Austin Collins *CAN* XI
7. Graeme Vint *AUS* XI
8. Peter Jackson *AUS* XI
9. Shaggy Junior *IND* XI
10. Babiya Mahesh *SRL* XI
11. Abongile Sodumo *RSA*
1. Youth pulls no longer need to be kept for the duration of the comp, but do still need to be kept for a week. The initial rating of the player will be the rating use in the calculations.
2. A clarification to the rule - "2. Must pull at least one Kenyan during the tournament." A clarification - you must have made at least Kenyan pull before your round 1 match. So between 25th of April and 12th of May. This is to ensure those who lose in the first round make their pull.
New rule clarifications, you should of got a message about this.
I did it all seems perfectly reasonable. Does Daniachew Murubi count as a pull Q?
He is 19 now but I pulled him myself.
No. As it wasn't done between 25th of April and 12 of March.
Got to purchase a few 19yr olds. Well I'll do that once my 1,000 word essay is done. :(

So whoever we pull tonight will count for the YP comp? Or just for the qualification for KO Comp?
You're complaining about 1000 word essays? Dude wait till you get to uni!!

I think just the qualification, but I'm not sure I asked the same question. Check the Kenyan board, an answer should come soon.

1,000 is nothing. You can pump that out in an hour. Limits is what I hate, they are a dog.
I thought thesis' were usually 12k?
Or does it depend on the subject you do?
It's 12k minimum but I was doing a double major. Hence 25k. Wasn't 1 single thesis but due at the same time turned it into 1 lot off work at the same time, but was 2 separate pieces.
Wow nice effort shaggy. I don't think I could ever be able to write that much!
I feel sorry for the guy who had to read and mark it haha
The thing that made it hard was keeping it to the proper topic in each. Several times I found myself mixing them up lol
Just confirmed that pulling now does count towards the YP comp.

Aww saw this a few days too late :'(
I am playing a bot in my first round :\
How does that work alex??
No idea. But it is definitely a bot : http://www.fromthepavilion.org/club.htm?teamId=471
I suppose it gives my guys a chance to build their confidence before round 2 :P

wtf? how does a bot enter a friendly comp?
Probably entered then went bot. Very strange :\
Not a bot anymore alex. Has a manager that joined yesterday!
Yep. Not a BOT.
Was a bot. Not any more but he WAS. Still an easy win for me.

True. Lucky - I'm probably going to get knocked out first round but looking at the guy he doesn't have many U24s in his XI.
Wait a second:
The guy I'm playing has 7 U24 yo, so that's some good news. Except 1 of them is a Kenyan NAT :-X
http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=447586
^^^^ That guy is going to be sold after the game. So I can see his stats, Exp/Exp is good for his age but isn't anything dangerous :D Actually have a decent chance of winning.
Knock him out Q!

Knock him out Q!
If I make it through Round 1 then I'll be most likely be facing Enderby XI who rated 130k with no guys over 24 in his squad >:(
Same :P
And I'm out. Lost by 31 :'(
Bad luck Q :( Kicks off at 7 tonight for me.fairly confident ;D
Just got home from work ... the guy I am playing against has one 24yr old in his team and the rest of his players are 25+ ??? Why join a comp if you don't intend on following the rules?
I'm going to win comfortably anyway.

He gets DQ'ed anyway.
Yeah I thought he would get DQ'd. but still .. it defeats the purpose of entering.
Same :P He has basically got his starting team out there though so that would be why :P Probably doesn't even know how to set orders yet :o
Forgot to set orders and Devila is playing with no youths. Oops. :(
