The slots are public; the games are not
The league publishes its playing pattern precisely — which night each of seven divisions plays, and eight start times spread from 9:00am to 7:45pm across weekdays and weekends. It publishes no fixture: no date, opponent or field assignment for any of sixty-plus clubs.
Sixty teams on seven replica fields across five months is one of the largest scheduling operations in this directory, done entirely out of public view, on a site that otherwise publishes outfield dimensions to the foot. High Cheese builds a season in one pass across seven divisions, publishes it as text and syncs it to every player's phone.
