Hi all,
Hope everyone is buzzing to go for the new season! New season kick-off is just around the corner and excited to share the we’ve finally launched the website to update and share the league info (many parts still being updated tbf)
Nonetheless, the operation is on Discord (Invite Link) - if you join Discord, please look for me, user ID: @arsenalfcjun14)
If you have any inquiries you can also send an email to fpljyj@gmail.com, I can send you the PDF league docs I created for these below -
- Pyramid League - has vertical structure with promotion / relegation feature.
We launched this project in 2021/2022 season, and currently has 5 divisions set up (conveniently named Premier League division w 1 league, Championship division w 2 leagues, League One division w 3 leagues, League Two division w 4 leagues, National League division w 5 leagues = 10 leagues total)
Buy-in is $30 but $20 goes to prizes for this season, $10 goes to deposits for 3 seasons (details in the league doc)
Current Set-up - Premier League to National League
Non-Pyramid League
- horizontal structure, much simpler set up
Below are the leagues we have going so far:
Buy-ins
$300 - 1 league currently full, taking waitlist
$200 - 1 league currently full, taking waitlist
$100 - 2 leagues currently full, still open
$50 - 3 leagues currently full, no longer taking waitlist
$40 - 2 leagues full, still open
$20 - 3 leagues currently full, no longer taking waitlist
Currently, mainly only $100 and $40 league are open, don’t be shy to express interest!
Other competitions/features
- There’s lot more than just the leagues above
Both Pyramid and Non-Pyramid leagues are connected via a manually operated competition called Draft FPL Champions League, which is a merit-based competition and there’s also cup competitions, named conveniently as FA Cup and League Cups, and Managers of the Month awards
Overall Competition Set up
Draft FPL Champions League is optional with $10 buy-in, simply winner-take-all
Champions League is merit-based, you have to have performed really well in the previous season to qualify for it
<New in 2026/2027 - managers approved updating the competition format to the current UCL format. No more 8 groups of 4, now it’ll be single league phase with 8 matches followed by KO state>
Group Stage from 2025/2026 (only showing A and B)
Then to Champions League glory!
Probably a little hard to see 100-manager FA Cup snapshot
Also, there’s Coefficients assigned to every manager (think of UEFA Club Coefficients or FIFA Coefficients), mainly used for Draft FPL Champions League currently, along with other features
Showing top 25 managers for Coefficients, based on Coefficient mapping
Showing top 20 managers for Points Per Match (PPM) Ranking table
All leagues currently already have tentative and some locked draft date/time set-up
Prize tables for both Pyramid and Non-Pyramid Leagues are work-in-progress as we’re still building out leagues, but up-to-date as of July 23, 2023**
Before moving on to Prize tables, there’s one new feature in 2023/2024 season. We’re getting rid of most activity prize category and replacing it with “League Strength Indicator” category
As you can see below we came up with a methodology to measure league’s relative strength based on average points and spread of points in each league.
