Hello, this is an invitation to get involved in the A-League/Conference Crossover League.
If you're new to the A-League/Conference Crossover League (aka "A-League Adoption"), what happens is the supporters of A-League clubs chose a team from the English Nationwide Conference to support during the A-League off-season.
It's basically a fun way of keeping rivalries alive during the A-League off-season (as well as giving Conference clubs a side to follow during their off season.
Games played by the Conference clubs are then tallied in the A-League-style table, as is included below. Have a look and you'll get the idea.
The grand plan is to get D3 clubs to pick teams below the Conference (Doc Martins, Unibond, and Ryman leagues) so we can have a bit of USL promotion/relegation during our off-season.
A website is on its way.
Cheers.
