Having been fully accepted into the Atlantian Oceania region, the Allied States of Myrtannia would like to initiate its stay here with a sporting competition. In the interest of variation, Myrtannia will be hosting an international (within AO boundaries) basketball tournament. All nations are encouraged and welcome to enter one national team for both the men's and women's categories per nation.
Teams will be split into groups, and within each group, teams will play one another twice. The two teams per group with the best records after group play will advance to the tournament round. At this stage, single-elimination matches will be held to determine the Regional Champion and the second and third place winners. Venues selected for the inagural tournament are:
Halosen Garden Arena: Capacity - 25,000 Location: Halosen, Turku Province.
Air Myrtannia Center: Capacity - 22,500 Location: Skalatur, Fergot Province
Ah-Harim Memorial Colisseum: Capacity - 20,000 Location: Damascos, Lahar Province
Elimico Court: Capacity - 24,000 Location: Niniisto, Ebhoy Province
Bunkal Arena: Capacity - 27,500 Location: Bunkal, Yoham Province
Air Myrtannia will cover all airfare into and out of the nation for participating teams, and the federal government will provide high-end motels for all teams. All interested parties should use this thread to sign up and/or post team rosters. When signing up, please specify if you are entering a men's team, a women's team, or both. In any case, teams may have up to 12 active players, with 2 on the reserve list. |

ASMV will be pleased to send both a women's and men's team to compete, as basketball is the most prolific sport in the nation. Just let me know what you need for the rosters. |

Nojika will participate -- though shouldn't it be called the AO Regional Basketball Championship instead of the AO International Basketball Championship? Ah well... |

Well, you could call it the Regional Basketball Championship or the International Basketball Championship, whatever floats your boat, I suppose. I just assumed international since it was a contest between nations - thus, inter-national. Though I'm officially going to change it to AORBC, since that seems to fit better.
ASMV, what we need for rosters are -
For each player: name, height, position, jersey number For team in general: Designation of starting lineup/bench/reserve players, name of head coach and possibly coaching staff. |

I do see Nojika's point. Most times International means Inter-regional. But it doesnt matter to me.

I suppose I will give this a go, since I am at least somewhat familiar with the sport. For those who don't already know, I'm pretty much the stereotypical geek when it comes to sports, in that I know little of anything in concerns to them. I've been involved some in the past with basketball though, so I'll give this a try. Here's hoping I don't screw up somehow.
Oh, and I'll be sending a men's team. |

Well, rosters from those who haven't already posted them would be nice (might give you a bonus in the simulation, too, hint hint), but we can get started soon. I was hoping for perhaps a few more entrants to broaden the field a bit, but it looks like this' going to be it.
So far, we have: ASMV, Nojika, Nedalia, Sarzonia, Myrtannia, Lamoni, and Khazaron.
Nations who've posted official rosters: ASMV, Lamoni, Myrtannia, and Khazaron.
Also, due to there only being three women's team entrants (two of which have posted rosters), the women's event will probably be axed this time around. Possibly we could have a winner-takes-all match between the two with rosters to determine regional women's champion.
For the field we have so far, I'll most likely split them into one group of four and one group of three. In a change from the initial setup, the two teams with the best records after the round-robin round will recieve automatic berths in the tournament stage, and those with the next two best records will also advance to that stage. |
