I would like to participate in future HGL-PL, to try and fight for a spot in season 7.

My team (137833) should be fully HGL compliant in 4 days or so. I have my 5 non HG players for sale, most since yesterday, one since this midday. If they don't sell, I'll just fire them.

Best wishes.

Thanks for further confirmation about that!
If you want to make some extra money (I don't know if you would be able to sell them for expensive price, or if it would be more affordable to fire them to avoid weekly wages - I didn't "evaluate" the value of your roster), you can also take your time to sell them.
In order to participate to HGL-PL, you don't have to be HG eligible team when HGL starts. You only need to be HGL-PL eligible one day before HGL-PL starts, which will likely be at the end side of next Season (perhaps slightly earlier though than on this Season).

It's tempting since two of my transfers are interesting, but I've scouted a great draft prospect that I want to build around.

I'm last right now after coming back to a 0-19 record. If I win today I'll finish second to last, but since the bottom team is a bot, there's only a 1/48 chance it auto-picks my guy. I had a lot of scouting points—unfortunately, I spent them all because I forgot they carry over!

I'm ready to fully dive into the HG challenge now and focus 100% on training my trainees, in the long term, that would mean my team is slightly better once I get into the HG-PL (I think)

Thanks for the tips.

Yes, I got a level 5 trainer. Will have to look at feasibility of secondary coach.

There are not enough players in Spain to completely fill division IV (my team has gone down without me 2 or 3 times, and remained at IV). We should get around 2 bots per group.

The draftee is a SG, all the three 5/5 draftees are 6'0 to 6'2. This one has good abilities already, he is 6'1'' and has strong Jump Shot/Outside Defense and proficient Jump Range/Driving. The plan, depending on the rest of the draftees, is to use single position training (although maybe for a new HG team better would be to train dual and get more guys better at first?) and train the usual suspects: Outside Shooting, Outside Defence and One on One.

For now, Morillo IS in that plan, yes. Maybe play/train him as SF.

Any advice or tweaks on the order of skills to pop first is highly appreciated!

This is my teams' own box score post for HGL-PL on Season 5:

HGL-PL Round 1, Monday July 20th, 2026:
M.L.S. REICH - borteam(139722933)

HGL-PL Round 2, Friday July 24th, 2026:
M.L.S. REICH - San Fernando (139721683)

HGL-PL Round 3, Sunday July 26th, 2026:
Tassie Devils - M.L.S. REICH (139800935)

Note: # sign in front of team name means it's their responsibility to send Pickup match challenge!

@Spela/Hårdboll:

I will send you same message here on this HGL Thread, as I sent you by BBMail. Of course, as you know, many other BBMails have been sent to you about it earlier, without no response (after this response from you, which I did not understand completely with 100% clarity).


Here's the message, that (has been sent to you as BBMail - with few small edits in this forum version) requires your comment, or if you don't comment on it, it leads to your team dismissal from HGL as far as Season 6 is concerned:


Urgent, respond NOW; your HGL participation!

Hej Spela,
I have sent you many BBMails over weeks about your continuation in HGL.

Like I said to you, I did NOT completely, with 100% clarity, understood what you meant. Do you:
1. Want to continue in HGL for Season 6, or
2. Do NOT want to continue in HGL for Season 6.

If I would have to choose, I understood you do NOT want to continue.
Based on what you wrote, and also based on that you don't communicate with me or with any of us (on HGL forums) anymore.

But please confirm to me which one is the case for you; yes or no, to your continuing in HGL?

I will still give you little bit more than a week to respond to this message.

Unless I hear from you at the end of the next week, by 26th of July 2026 at 23.59 Swedish time (July 27th 00.59 EET DST) at the latest, I have no other options than to drop your team out of HGL for Season 6.

You can always apply to HGL again, by participating to HGL-PL (and get back to HGL by being successful in it, if there are open places in HGL for next Season).

But please don't exit HGL by not saying anything.

@all HGL-PL managers, note few things:

- It is unsure whether or not Tassie Devils (TD) will participate to HGL-PL or not, and/or whether his team is handed forfeit losses due to possibly not completing HGL-PL tasks before HGL-PL starts tomorrow.

In other words it is unsure if matches against him will be forfeit wins for you. But please set up your tactics/lineups so that you expect this to be a normal, competitive match against Tassie Devils (TD).
(Remember, that in theory, in some special/extreme cases, even both teams can be handed a forfeit loss for the same match, and while this would be rare and complicated, I hope we don't need to go there as that's in some cases "grey area" where proving this or proving that will come into the picture, and we don't want that as it's in some cases impossible, and in rest of cases frustrating and/or inconvenient and/or arduous).

- Remember, that it's important to fill your box score with actual scores (in written numbers) after matches have been played.

- Be prepared to accept invitation to HGL very soon after HGL-PL has ended, as match organizing window for HGL Season 6 will open not long after HGL-PL on Season 5 has finished!
Team will need to answer to a BBMail quickly, when place to HGL is offered, or otherwise next team on the line (based on HGL-PL success) will be offered a place. This 'quickly' is currently undetermined, but as we are pressed in time, it will mean days rather than week(s), as we need to be able to proceed with HGL match organizing - impossible to do that without knowing which teams will play.

- Note that current HGL team, Hårdboll, has been given time to respond until the end of next week (July 27th, 00.59 EET DST) whether or not they want to continue in HGL. This will affect to amount of open places on HGL on Season 6 (1 or 2).

- 2 of 4 box score posts complete; ; MLS has one missing match from box score post; TD has not created box score post at all.

- All HGL-PL teams rosters have been once again confirmed to be HGL-PL eligible; also SAN's roster is now okay, after getting rid of their player J. Bolourchian

- @M.L.S. REICH: organize match against TD nevertheless ASAP, even though we don't know if that will count or not. Also complete your box score post for yout team, when you have match number available (when match has been organized).
