2015-2016 BFFA CUP
We will do a “live draw” on RabbleTV and/or YouTube for each round, beginning with the First Round Draw on December 10, 2015.
The BFFA CUP winner gets auto-entry into the next season’s Champions League. If they do not qualify for Champions League in their respective division, they knock out the lowest Champions League qualifying team (team with the lowest number of table points).
Note about the BFFA Cup: If teams play to a draw they then play a replay match per the BFFA Cup calendar, as they do in the FA Cup. If you draw again, we go to total goals scored and if there is still a tie, we go to assists, and if there is still a tie, we go to clean sheets. After that, we all quit. O.K., we’ll flip a coin.
PRIZE: The BFFA Cup Champion not only gets $100 and auto-entry into the Champions League*, but they also receive the BFFA traveling trophy, to be mailed to their residence. They will then need to mail the trophy to the winner the following year, unless they can somehow miraculously repeat. The current holder of the BFFA Cup (an invisible trophy at the time of this writing) is SB Town United Athletic Onion Baggers.

*If the BFFA Cup Champion does not finish in the top 4 places (CL places) of their division, they will replace the 4th place team with the lowest Table Points (W-D-L) in the league. The tiebreaker in this case will be Total Fantasy Points. If still tied at that point we will take head to head if they played in the BFFA Cup and then a 3 out of 5 coin toss.
