Lineup's may be place in the comments of the Gateway United Official Club Site. The Rules will follow the standard BSL rulebook however lineup failures will result in zero total points for the week missed (Not a 1 point subtraction like the BSL official rules) "The Saints organization is proud to be able to host the first of this event at Money Bomb Stadium. While the boys would prefer to be playing in the Majors Cup for a league sanctioned Cup, the welcome mat is out to all the participants. Tickets have been selling fast as expected. Attractive opponents like Arsenal, Liverpool from the EPL and Union SC and Alamo City from the BSL make for a complimentary exhibition." said the Gateway United owner.
