Some great information, Wagner.

However, there is only one match that everybody in the HGL is waiting for, popcorn in hand...

...the clash of the titans...a battle between giants...

...when in the final round of the season, the mighty Svaty Jur Snakers (defending HGL Champions) meet...

...the Swan River Serpents! )


Tickets are on sale now...

...you do not want to miss this. So, get your tickets while you can!

Season's goals :
- try to come back on the forum (I'm still back from holidays, it should help)
- try to have more time to prepare games
- try to reach #5 or #6 this season.

The last round of the regular season will be very difficult, but I will try to win

What kind of goals you all have for Season 2 of HGL?

I haven't set any goals. I'll see what the season brings.....

You´re absolutely right, I don't want to miss it! Besided, I love traveling so what's better than to get to travel the world and see HGL live... ;D But I´d have one question - does the ticket price include flights to the destination, as I suppose it´ll be played at the surprise location that's revealed to the public not earlier than right before the match starts? ;P

Yes, its definitely a secret...but flights are included.

The last round of the regular season will be very difficult, but I will try to win

I applaud your optimism.

EDIT: Social Security Kings from USA (IKnowZip as their manager), who were originally intending to join starting from Season 3, are not HGL eligible currently and do not intend to become an eligible team at least not by the start of HGL Season 3, so I´ll remove his team from the listing of teams wishing to start next season.


I've now updated a post that lists current HGL teams, as well as those wishing to participate in the future.

I'll copy-paste it to this Season 2 thread as well so that it's way easier to find (and update when needed).

Please remember to inform me early enough (by the start of HGL Playoffs would be again a good deadline) if you are already playing in HGL and wish to continue on Season 3 as well.
Only Hadár and myself have confirmed participation to Season 3 so far, so if you are already confident you will want to keep on playing, please let me know rather sooner than later.

So next post will be about the updatable list of teams, who are playing and have been showing interest towards HGL.

Possible new team additions/new candidates for Season 3 of HGL:
On this "Possible new team additions"-list I'll be from now on keeping a list of teams, who are interested in participating to Season 3 of HGL (which takes place during next Buzzerbeater season).

*Currently no new-to-HGL teams have announced of their interest/preference to start on Season 3*



Other possibly interested teams (likely/possibly joining HGL later but currently preferred starting season hasn't been announced by manager):

1. BC Homegrown (Dutch Farmer), original interest announced April 15th, 2025 ((324689.730))
2. San Antonio Gladiators (Enigma), June 25th
3. Social Security Kings (IKnowZip), announced July 30th, 2025




If you´re still not playing in HGL but wish to do so in the future, please let me know either by responding to this post or sending me a BBMail. When you do so, I'll add you to a list based on your preferred starting season.
However, this applies to current and potentially new teams (currently not playing in HGL).
In other words, if you are already playing in HGL, please inform me of your interest to continue playing on next Season of HGL by the start of current Seasons' HGL playoffs, thank you.

Basically, personally I'd like to guarantee a place for all current teams playing in HGL for the next season as well, should they wish to continue playing in it, and I added "day of announcement" above mainly in the case new teams join and if we would need to restrict the amount of accepted new teams (due to sensible league size restrictions) and if we would then use 'day of announcement' as a critical decisive factor in deciding which new teams would be allowed to join.

This, however, hasn't been locked in as a selection method for new teams, and when I think of it, if we have "too many" interested new teams wanting to join HGL (and simply couldn't accept them all), then I think some kind of play-in type short league/playoffs structure (that would take place during Season 2 HGL Playoffs) between these teams would be preferable in that case to determine participation rights for new teams for the Season 3.
