Commissioners of the old world,

Has anyone ever considered doing some form of inter-league, league with other leagues in their own country? Or has anyone ever done this?

Curious as well as interested in doing something like this.

We considered one a while ago. We being Exiles in Bournemouth, Cake in Swindon, ARBBL in Andover and Bubba in Bristol. That's as far as we got :)

BUBBA had a bit of a foray in the past with a duel Bristol/Welsh league.

TBH honest the logistics and fine for leaving England (Severn Bridge Toll) kind of killed it before we could really get something going.

I always thought it was a good idea but the practicalities of getting people in the same place hurt it, especially when people can just go on FUMBBL or Cyanide to get a game.

We are working toward something like this in the PNW. S.

As LM said, we were considering it, but ARBBL had a problem due to having two night workers, making it difficult to go elsewhere (couldn't expect everyone to come to Andover) and due to not really having lots of committed BB players.

The LIBBL and NYCBBL have considered doing a world cup-style tournament. We have a rulebook written and the point is that these teams (all TV1000 to enter) will then be able to play in our leagues afterwards. Our rulesets are largely compatible (or were when we discussed this). The only reason it didn't run was because we were all very busy.
