Well, hello to all of you board members out there. I hope that your day has been well. I have had a fictional country for about a year now, and it also came with a little inspiration from the Alton pyramid by the amazing @TheGiantsFan.
So I welcome you to the country of Cevelia! This country is made up of two islands in the middle of the Atlantic. The main island is home to 18 states, and the smaller one has two states. Maps will come in a few posts. But let's get to the league!
This league is probably the most stable in all of the world, being around for 89 YEARS!! I think that's a record. It survived through World War 2 because the real "pyramid" aspect didn't get going until the '50s, after the war, and the President at the time, David T. Kraatz, loved soccer so much, he actually declared all players exempt from the draft. But after that, the league slowly expanded, and with the last planned team added to the mix 4 years ago, the league is now at a grand total of 95 teams. Here is how the pyramid is divided.
League I: Premiere
25 teams
Promote 3 and Relegate 3
League II: Champions
30 teams
Promote 6 and Relegate 6
League III: Professional
40 teams
I'm not going to simulate the league, so I won't go into scheduling of matches.
The league has a few rules when it comes to the uniforms, which is why we are here today. Here is a list:
- Each team must have a white, yellow, tan/cream, or light pink jersey for home games, and a dark jersey for the road.
- There is no standard font and colors for the numbers and NOB
- The team crest does not necessarily have to be on the uniform, unless the team custom makes their jerseys or sponsors themselves
- The jersey must contain the suppliers logo on the uniform, doesn't matter where
Now that that's out of the way, and we have a template thanks to the amazing @TheGiantsFan, let's get this ball rolling. CFS Project, Initiate!!!!!
First up:
League I
Royal Saint City
Nickname: The Royals
Location: City of Saints, Morgan
Founded: 1886
Last Promoted: 1983
Championships: 15
This team, based in the most religious, and oldest, city in the state of Morgan, is the most prestigious team in the league. They are always competing for the championship, year after year, and always find a way to recruit the biggest names in soccer. The club goes for a traditional look, and it all starts with the crest, and its simple shield design makes it one of the most recognizable in Cevelian sports. The home kit is a simplistic white kit with red cuffs. The away kit is a traditional half and half red and blue with yellow accents, appropriate for the patriotic colors of the flag of Cevelia, red,blue, and yellow. The kit supplier is Nike, and the sponsor is Morgan Electric, the state electricity company.
C&C Highly Encouraged, I do have 36 teams done, so if anyone would like to submit some sponsors, that would be highly appreciated.
