The 2014 WCFBA League will commence play in March and will continue on close to a bi-weekly basis into October. Four to six teams will fill out the league. In the past, A's and Giants teams operated separately, but beginning in 2010, the A’s and Giants players were combined into one league draft. The concept of A's teams and Giants teams is no more and pool players will be assigned to the most appropriate team on a given week. Those who wish to play full-time should respond to an email request in early February. A draft will take place in early March to pick the teams. Part-time or 'pool' players should respond to the pool coordinator's request by Thursday at noon of a given play week to get on the priority list. Open roster spots will be filled each week from these pool player signups.
