Welcome to the Official Sign up for the UPL FIFA Season 5
We are back after a lengthy break with the Return of the UPL Premier League!
We are also delighted to announce a Partnership with Pro Clubs Zone who will provide us with a platform to run the League via their App providing a professional management platform to the league
PRO CLUBS
When you sign up to UPL as a Player, you immediately enter the system as a "Free Agent". What this means is that you are not signed to any team, are not on any roster in any capacity, and are "free", free to trial, free to sit around, free to sign for a club. Anything you think you can do without being on a team, you can do. However, this is normally not the fun thing to do, anybody can sign up to UPL and not play, but the whole thing is about getting stuck in, building up your reputation, and eventually playing for one of the best clubs. The question is of course, how?
To Join as a player, enter your details on a Twitter post and Clubs will be notified of your availability. If you wish to join straight into a club. Look for there team on Twitter and drop them a message
Once you've followed that, found a team, and are all signed up, that means that you are officially eligible to play UPL Pro Clubs games for your club.
IMPORTANT INFO
The Main Question..... When are the Games?
The Fixtures are the flexible EVER. Times will be down to you and the opponents manager, you can play any day of the week at Any time in any order of fixture. For Each Game if you are running late, you are eligible to Delay the match by 15mins so then the match can be played or if given notice, organise for another day.
MANAGEMENT
Management is a whirlwind. It can be fantastic, a nightmare, Regardless, it's an experience.
The thing with management is understanding the basic golden rule. The rule is that it's a commitment. Regardless if you're losing every week, winning every week, or have the most inconsistent form known, the golden rule is getting through.
If you take management, you MUST produce a team EVERY GAME. A Minimum of 5 Players is required for your Team every single match
Lets go over the basics that you need for management;
- A core group of players that you will not let you down regardless of result.
- Maturity. If you can't handle losing, you should not go near management.
- Understanding of the rules.
- The ability to make tough decisions.
- Lastly, and most importantly, being aware enough to ask Admins for help/advice.
Picking the team
This one is important, in your group chat put a roll-call out for the upcoming game/weekend.
When selecting your Team, you MUST SEND the TEAM SHEET or Starting XL to the Admin via Twitter or Discord for all the players to be ticked off for the all clear.
Do not assume that people are always free. If you fail to submit your Team to your Admin at the latest of 30mins before the game you will be awarded a Default Loss of 1-0
