Leagues tend to die out if new coaches can't be recruited or if the admins don't have time to keep up the group. I've been in many leagues so far and maintaned some too, but everytime the same troubles strike the league at some point and it dies out.

Now I've been trying to bring the NBL back to life by recruiting new coaches as well as some of the old ones to join new tournament by posting to forum and asking other to post when they join so the forum keep popping in the recent topics, hopefully this leads into something.

I think all I can do now is wait for the message to get to people.
I hope this is enough to get the first tournament going, second should be a bit easier arrange.
