that actually sounds like a real good idea like a sort of USA reporter for training updates game performances and a international one to keep up with happenings of that sort

Ehhhh down for whatever, per usual. Despite my mediocre club performance, I should probably get more involved in the scouting/tactical aspects but I'm always involved in the scouting/training.

You're gonna get all the good people like Rambo before the U21 team gets a chance. Cheat.

I have been wanting to post in one of the threads about this and this looks like as good a spot as any.

I have been reading the debates for people wanting to be the managers for the u21 team and was going to throw my name in but realized i still don't know enough to actually manage, and would love to become more involved. I've been trying to find something that would allow me to get in on an entry level if you will so that i can learn more about all this.

I believe that i have made pretty rapid progress as far as getting my team built and progressing through the levels. I believe my strength and what i would be most interested in is scouting the opposition. I believe that has been one of my strengths in this game is tactics, especially managing enthusiasm and putting the right game plan in place. So let me know what i can do to help.

Also since i've been reading more and trying to get more involved i've been hearing about this "offsite" deal and have no idea what it is. If i could get some more info on that that would be awesome!

I'd help if it weren't for self-confidence issues.

But good luck to the NT. Fight the good fight.

Prizzle...I think we could work together (maybe even get more people involved) and release some kind of BB-USA press release every week...if someone who has some skill with design would volunteer (could put something nice-looking together with minimal effort), I would be happy to function as an editor of sorts (majored in English in Uni) and look over articles/write some of my own...we could get some people to write up NT games, strategy articles, training articles, look-ins on prominent teams, interviews with succesful managers...could be a lot of fun.

Alternatively, Prizzle and I can just write up game reports and post them too...but I wouldn't be opposed to being part of something bigger.

I think a BB USA press release would be very interesting, and I would be fine with working with others. The more that sign up for it the more information we could try to involve. I can't really help with the formatting, as I am very poor in those, but it would be fine with me to use some type of format, and would probably help the press release idea.

So yeah it would just depend on whatever yall would want to do, either option sounds find to me, just whichever one we can get together in place.

Hey southpaw, I'd definitely agree that for someone in your situation, getting involved in opposition scouting might be the most useful role. Helping scout our next opponents, figuring out what they do well/poorly, how best to attack them, etc, is probably to most transferable skill one can take from being involved in the NT, since it's pretty similar to how you'd want to plan for league matches. Of course, the levels of skills are different, but I don't think that makes much of a difference--teams still have their relative strengths and weaknesses, and finding those and figuring out how best to exploit them is pretty valuable.

As for the offsite, there's a thread pinned to the top of the bb-usa forum (NT news & info, this one, I think: (136866.1)) with instructions on getting to it and creating an account.
