The long-awaited return of the Kings League is finally around the corner, with the first game scheduled to take place on February 16. Fans are eager to see how their favorite teams will perform with their new lineups after the ‘mercato’. The anticipation has been building up, and the first program of the ‘chup chup’ has already provided some exciting news. One of the most striking announcements was that Lamine Yamal will present everything related to his team at the Kings League on March 31.
The official calendar of the first day has also been presented, featuring some carefully curated matchups designed to maximize excitement and morbidity in both the Kings and Queens League. However, an unplanned topic was also discussed, with Spursito suggesting that the competition organizers should consider devising a system to ensure all teams have something at stake in the final days of the regular phase. This is particularly important now that classification to the Kings World Cup is at stake.
A New Playoff Format
The Kings League has always been characterized by its willingness to listen to fan feedback and implement their suggestions. With this in mind, the competition has devised a new playoff system, but before making any changes, they have decided to conduct a survey to gather fan opinions. The proposed format is straightforward, involving a preliminary playoff tournament featuring the last four classified teams. This mini tournament would consist of semifinals and a final, with the winners advancing to the traditional playoffs.
The seventh and tenth placed teams would face off, while the eighth and ninth placed teams would compete against each other. The winner of this preliminary playoff would then proceed to the traditional playoffs, where they would play against the second classified team. This new system aims to provide an extra incentive for all clubs to perform well on the last day, making every position relevant.
To vote on this proposal, fans can participate in a survey, which is currently indicating that the new method will be adopted. The outcome is still uncertain, and fans will have to wait to discover the result. The survey can be accessed through a link, allowing fans to have their say on the future of the Kings League playoffs. With the return of the league just around the corner, fans are eagerly awaiting the outcome of this survey and the start of the new season.
