APBA Soccer Premier League Opening
The ASPL, an 8-team draft keeper League, has an opening of an existing competitive team which won the title two seasons ago.  The ASPL uses the annual EPL card set.  Games are played by the visiting manager sending instructions to the home manager or optionally playing FTF on Zoom.  The league runs late Fall through May and plays 3 to 4 games a month.  The league has no dues but each league member is obligated to buy the annual EPL card set from APBA.  The ASPL Commissioner is Jack Dolan and the league statistician is John Cochrane.  The new manager need not be an APBA Soccer expert (league members will assist you) but must be committed, timely, reliable, and of good sportsmanship.  If interested or questions, please contact Jack Dolan at jaxondolan@gmail.com (864-2832437) or John Cochrane at Jectaxcpa@aol.com (571-275-2604).

TABL Opening
The TABL has an opening for one more computer player using BBW 5.75 and/or BBW 6.1.  They are now completing their 58th season.  TABL’s 84-game schedule makes each home game a little more intense and interesting, with no heavy deadlines.  The league’s simple stats program produces statistics more accurately than League Manager.  A good existing franchise in a 20-team keeper league is available.  The TABL plays games April through September, holds an 8-team playoff, and has a Winter draft.  A great group of guys.  Recently, the 18th league convention was held in Minneapolis.  The next one, probably in 2027, is being considered in Pittsburgh, Detroit, or Chicago.  League websites are:  http://chrisorly.com/TABL/  and  https://managethemayhem.wixstudio.com/tabl/
