The First Season

The first season was very exciting! It lasted only two days, as we played it on the last two days of the spring term but a lot happened in that short time. After the first day the table was like this:
1: Casper barette with 5 points
2: Qaiss gobari with 5 points
3: Jimmy chambers with 4 points
4: Emeric bareham with 1 point
But after Jimmy's poor first day performance (wins:1 draws:1 losses:1) he won every match left to play, shooting into first place by 5 points!
The final was phenomenal. A dead tie right through to the fifth game, in which Qaiss seized a one, then two point lead. Jimmy had a lot of catching up to do. At the fifteenth game the scores were level. 3-3. Sudden death was called, and Jimmy chambers finished the match, winning 4-3 and gaining the Blue-Tac cup for the first time.
Meanwhile, in the play-offs, Emeric was having an easy time beating Casper, who, at the sixth match, forfeited, leaving Emeric in third place and himself relegated. Consequently, Theo was promoted to the top league, leaving the table as it stands today.

About the NCL

Hello league supporters and competitors!

The NCL (which stands for Noughts and Crosses League) is a league introduced at Stanford Jr school and, as the name suggests, involves noughts and crosses! Competitors battle it out in a six-day long season trying to gain the top two spots in the table. The top two go through to a best of fifteen league final. Third and fourth go into a play-off match. They are all competing for the blue-tac cup, built by myself.
