We have been eliminated from the 2014 WCL Division 2 "Bottom 4 Playoff", meaning we will play in Division 3 in 2015 (Team Rasht won the playoff).  No worries, as we will hopefully be more competitive in Division 3 as the city teams are smaller.  As we grow as a team in numbers and rating, I hope we will one day play our way back into Division 2.

The official 2015 WCL Division 3 schedule has been released, and now REVISED.  The start date has been moved up to allow more time between rounds.  This should be a good thing for smaller teams with not many participants.  Phase 1 will now run from late October 2014 until late February 2015.  There will be 7 rounds in Phase 1.  Here's REVISED the schedule:

BREAKING NEWS:  Two teams in the 2015 WCL Division 2 have withdrawn from the league.  Team Pittsburgh has been promoted back up to Division 2 for the 2015 WCL!  We played in division 2 last season, but due to our final standing we were demoted to division 3.  Here is the 2015 WCL Division 2 groupings and schedule:
