Zombie Cats and Venados
The 18+ division carries the Tigres, the Venados, the Black Sox, the Rams, the Salty Dogs, the Riptide and the Buccaneers. The 30+ carries the Zombie Cats, the Waves, the Oaks and the Whalers. The 45+ carries the Sox, the Seals and the Stingrays.
The Zombie Cats is the best name in the league and the Venados -- deer -- is the one that tells you most about who plays here.
Every club is restocked through the draft each spring, so the rosters turn over annually while the names persist.
A High Cheese team page belongs to the club rather than the season, so the Whalers keep one address across every draft class, result and championship -- which in a league that redrafts every year is the only continuity a club has.
