Prospect
The FYC is heading into its 73rd season and needs a few owners. There are a number of reasons to join us:

Longevity
At last check, over a quarter of our ownership have been in the league for over 20 seasons.

Stability
We have a competitive league and no drama. Our private rules are clear and enforced. Those rules are the following:

1. In order to adopt a proposed rule or league action, 16 current owners must vote in favor of the measure within 7 days of the called vote.

2. In order for a proposed rule to be put to the league for a vote, the proposal must be submitted to the commissioner with a minimum of three co-sponsors.

3. Minimum Wins - Any team that finishes with less than 50 wins in a season will be removed from the FYC. If an owner fails to win 180 games, over a 3-year period, the league will vote whether to replace the owner at the end of the third regular season and before the next season begins.

4. Owners that accomplish a greater than or equal to 15+ seasons, a greater than or equal to .530+ winning percentage, greater than or equal to 6 division titles, and a greater than or equal to 2 World Series titles in the FYC will be eligible for the FYC Owner's HOF. Induction is automatic after having met the qualifications listed above; however, no more than one owner is admitted into the FYC Owner's HOF per season. If two or more owner's have met the qualifications for induction in the same season, the induction criteria will be used by the commissioner to determine the order of induction for the qualifying owners. Once an owner is inducted, no change in the initial qualifications will remove an owner from the FYC Owner's HOF.

Universal DH

This will be our first season with the Universal DH rule in play, so you have the chance to start on the ground floor of this era of Hardball Dynasty fun :)

Historical Stats

I have been running the statistically-centered blog here in FYC since I made it my “home world” back when I started playing in the late 20’s or early 30’s. Forty-something seasons later, there’s quite a bit of historical data available!

More recently, we have also started expanding into the world of Discord, as it’s easier to post screenshots, links etc.

Welcoming Attitude

Despite having and enforcing the MWR, we are also open to new(er) owners to the game who are looking to learn, and have a number of veteran owners who will happily answer questions and/or mentor newer players. If that’s you, please reach out!

And now…the moment you’ve all been waiting for - the available teams this year are:
