Subject: USA U-18 Team

I'll look into possibly creating a forum to help advertise these players, make information about national team requirements more accessible, and to reinvigorate the youth pulls forum. Any other ideas, to help promising prospects find good teams and to legally help spread money to newer teams with promising prospects, or anything else, are welcome.

I am still scouting prospects and am not yet sure what sort of help I might need at the end of the season. At this point in the season, it might be helpful if anyone with spare scouting space could help scout the U18 teams opponents (Slovakia, Russia, and Spain) for the upcoming World Championships. If even one person could cover each team, perhaps there might be some sort of advantage to be gained.

There are 50 days available to scout for the World Championships. It would probably be enough if someone could scout at least one player (with the highest OR's on the team) every 3 days for each team.

I can scout almost two per day. I will scout the U18 Slovakia team.

I Will do Spain. I can do 3 players every 2 days.

i can do 2 players every 3 days. just choose a country for me...

PS: I know i worked something for handball so NT managers can see players scouted by USA managers from any nationality. Not sure if that works for Hockey too. If not, I can do the same for hockey.

in short, a NT manager can see players of their own nationality and age range AND any player (with age range too) that has been scouted by a manager of the same NT team nationality.

I can help with scouting. Also, I would be willing to buy young American players for development, as long as I can be online for the deadline.

Thank you everyone! Since Spain and Slovakia are already, Russia is left for the other two volunteers. Perhaps bulls4ever could scout the players alphabetically, starting from a, and Camrawrn could start from y?

That scouting feature would be very much appreciated if it could be implemented!

The United States beat Russia, one of its opponents in the group stage of the upcoming top division World Championships. All aspects of the game were extremely close, but the United States managed a goal before the end of the overtime period. Both teams seem to have used most of their starting lineup. Levar Jones and Chad Welch from the third and fourth lines respectively scored fort the United States, while goaltender Jordy Rutherford earned the first star with his 96.3% save percentage. The United States did benefit from Russia's predictable tactics (normal) - Russia is likely not changing its tactics for every game until the tournament begins.

Last week, the United States lost in overtime against Slovakia. Both of these games against the two top teams in the group are very encouraging, though the United is still the underdog in this tournament.

Next week the United States plays another of the top teams in the world, Poland. The following week, the United States plays the Czech Republic.

4 of the Slovak players were uploaded today, but I can't see them. If you have already set this up for the hockey national teams, there might be some sort of bug.

because i have not implemented the same thing i did to handball.

current rule is that NT manager can only see players from their country.

For handball i implemented in a way that if an American would upload the players from any country then the NT manager can see them.

I have been a bit busy those days and the extra time i had i was using to help testing the new PPMe version.

I should work on it in the next couple of days.

I just wanted to confirm whether it was set up and in case it wasn't, let you know that it wasn't working.

There's no rush though - I don't really need it until the World Championships are approaching.

BTW, this month i am running a special program at Bulls4ever Hockey and soccer. Every penny earned from friendly games will be put away to build sports Academy levels.

this offer ends for matches scheduled Oct 1st. so it will be all friendlies until the end of 2014.

so, all of those managers with full Arena that want to help my Farm, feel free to send game requests!!

The United States, which was missing a few players for camp and had an injury, somehow managed to continue its streak of strong showings against upper tier competition with a 4-2 win against Poland today. The United States had almost a 60% winning percentage in the faceoff circle. Of the 11 power plays in the game, only one lead to a goal, by Richard Milton of the United States. The reason that the United States won today is ... let's just say fairies.

Next week, the United States will play the Czech Republic.

The first game of the World Championships starts in 6 weeks. If you have a player that started in the game against Russia (when all of the starters played) and haven't run a camp yet, it would be very much appreciated if you could find a good opportunity to run a camp before the tournament starts.

I'll send my youth players to camp in the next couple of weeks.
