Onderwerp: [idea] Change the format of the youth championship

We have 12 teams in Junior league. But I have 4 games with one oponent in this seasone. It`s not interesting.
Changes:
1) When we start the seasone - system identify count of teams. If 12 teams in this league - use format NEW (like adult leagues), if less then 12 - use current format.
2) If some teams want to leave the league - team id will present in league with team composition = 0. And will have technical defeat. And when they restore team - they come back in current league.

youth leagues weren't designed to be interesting

they should give us a chance to have more accurate coach estimations, and maybe to give some hints about player skills

btw I don't like the system aswell, there shouldn't be WO matches and odd numbers of teams in a league. Even a useless competition should be fair, and atm it isn't.

But needn`t do to much for designe to be more interesting youth league. Just one branching and copy/past from adult format.

Why we must use this developed in change time?

Is not as easy as a copy/paste, because the way the juniors school works make possible to get enough 11 youths at any given point into a season, so you can join the league at any moment into the season, and again if you promote some youths, you may end with less than 11 in the squad after joining the league, and for the same reason if you are in a country with few users you may end with not even 12 teams in a league, etc.

So yeah the current system is far from being interesting, or competitive, or realistic,(atm im in a league with 24teams) and i think it should be improved, but probably it wont be soon, not before a whole revamp to the youth system.

Ok. I wrote about the situations where seasone start with less than 12 teams or when team want to leave from the league.

Because, I don`t know why we need Junior divisions in this format? Create table for all Junior teams and let`s start.

2) If some teams want to leave the league - team id will present in league with team composition = 0. And will have technical defeat. And when they restore team - they come back in current league.

There is 66 differents matchs possible to be played beetween 12 teams (11+10+9+...+4+3+2+1), home or away

1) Make a memory with a count for these 66 matches with:
- how many time a match was already played in the current season
2) Make a memory with a count for all 12 teams with:
- How many time each team played at home in this current season.

Then, for a championship day (after the first journey):
- Let program at first 3 matchs less already played (on the high part of the div)
- The same in the low part of the div.
(for those 3 matchs, 6 teams have to be differents of course, but it's a not so complicated sort to program, i suppose)
- And all 12 matches choosen are at home for the team who played the less at home for the begining of the season.

Its just use the swiss system.

The main idea of this - take a chance for play with other teams in league. Because in the last league i had 6 matches with one team and 2 with another. Other 4 mathes was with different teams. Are this OK? I don`t think so.
