National Team Torunaments
National Teams and U21 National Teams compete in competitions alternating between a Consolation Tournament and Continental Championship Tournament. Managers of these teams are elected every second year so they get to manage through the two different competitions.

Oops typo, fixed. :P

I like it but I don't like putting loser as that technically means the team that came last, so maybe Runners-Up instead.
BTW I know "wikilanguage" as well.

Nice one! That's why I'd like to have some native speakers among us ;-)

My games are played at Saturday.

Either mine. We should specify the "timezone thing", and take as a reference a timezone (I think Boston time should be the best, that's the time BBs refer to usually).

Good idea, I've done stuff before and it seems you need at least 1 reference per section.

Anyone else got an idea???
