Our league meets every Thursday starting at 8:00 PM sharp, starting with a non-scored "welcome aboard" week on Thursday, January 18th, followed by official league play on Thursday, January 25th (Week 1). Finals are scheduled for April 4th*.</div><div dir="auto" style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">*Exciting news – Spinners is on the move! Our relocation, set for around February 22nd, will bring us to the golden mile, approximately 5 miles away. During this transition, league play will be temporarily paused until the machines are up and running at our new location. While the resumption date for league activities is yet to be confirmed, anticipate a possible break of 1-4 weeks. Not to worry, any missed weeks will be seamlessly added to the schedule, including the adjustment of finals. Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the moving date!</div><div dir="auto" style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">Even more exciting news - FSPA leagues will have a different format this season. All players will have the opportunity to compete for A division placement by playing against random opponents for league points in the initial weeks. Subsequently, players will be seeded into divisions, and our traditional "ladder" movement will resume for the rest of the season. See Kevin's "[FSPA] FSPA Winter/Spring seasons and format changes" sent earlier for more details. </div><div style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div dir="auto" style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">Dues are $40 per person ($42 if paying via credit card) and will be collected no later than Week 1. In addition, league members will receive a half-price entry to Spinners on league nights for just $7.50.<br></div><div dir="auto" style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div dir="auto" style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">Our league capacity at Spinners is nearly full, and we may soon need to cap the league at 64 players.
