All skill levels, stated plainly
The league describes itself as recreational, open to adults 18 and older, offering competitive play for all skill levels, with clubs in Wilmington and Jacksonville. Its slogan is aimed squarely at the returning player.
What it does not publish on the front page is a fee, a deadline, a roster size or a route for somebody without a team.
For a league already writing weekly about named players, the missing piece is the one that turns a reader into one of them.
High Cheese gives a league a join page with the terms on it and a free agent pool so an unattached player is placed rather than added to an inbox.
