With just 10 days to go before the start of the English Soccer League – and the first ever MicroNations League Trophy where micronations can compete online as ‘virtual managers’ – we still have only 5 teams signed up.
This is a disappointing take up, and reflects a similar issue found by the Commonwealth of Dracul who had to abandon the MicroChess Cup as micronations failed participate beyond round one.
The New Weddington Isles believes that being a micronation is much more than setting up a facebook page or signing endless treaties. We believe that micronationalism has a real potential to be a significant and meaningful movement – glorifying in our diversity but also FUN! One micronation alone cannot create a movement, but events like this that invite friendly competition and cordial interaction are a great means of bringing micronations from around the globe together – and have much more validity than fake wars and talks of nerf guns and armed military.
We have decided that a MINIMUM of 8 teams are needed to make the MicroNations League Trophy valid. If we fall short of this by 12th August then we will regretfully abandon the League. I would like to thank the enthusiasm and engagement of the 4 other teams who have signed up so far, and sincerely hope that we can reach like-minded micronations among the 1000s who are signed up to the various forums.
Joining us IS FREE and couldn’t be easier - simply go to this link to pick your team and register: fantasyfootball.telegraph.co.uk/team.

We hope to hear from you soon…
