WCLC Schedule and Tournament Structure

Tournament Structure & Schedule

The WCLC is a knock-out competition based on the English FA Cup. At present I have designed the knock-out structure for 72 teams. This allows all current 72 teams in the WCL to take part. At the moment no plans are in order to allow any clans on the waiting list to take part.

The current 72 team knock out will consist of 8 rounds to be played on the following dates and involving the following teams.

25/09/10 - Round 1: 16 lowest ranked Team
02/10/10 - Round 2: 8 winning teams from previous round + 24 next lowest ranked teams.
09/10/10 - Round 3: 16 winning teams from previous round + 16 next lowest ranked teams.
16/10/10 - Round 4: 16 winning teams from previous round + 16 teams yet to be entered.
23/10/10 - Round 5: 16 remaining teams.
30/10/10 - Quarter Finals : 8 remaining teams.
06/11/10 - Semi Finals: 4 remaining teams.
20/11/10 - Finals: 2 remaining teams + 3rd Place Playoff.

Team Seedings

Below you will find all the clans listed to take part and when each team will be entered into the competition. Seedings were decided based on where each team starts in the most present season of the WCL whilst also taking in to consideration performance in the previous season. Each group has been arranged in no particular order. Please note that these seedings are subject to changing should any teams be moved from the league and be replaced right up and until the draw for each round is made.
