Hey There Federationists!

Are you tired of the heatwave? Yearning for a humidity-free week? Well, I can't help you with climate and weather. What I can help you with, however, is getting you in the autumn spirit. What better way to welcome new traditions, new entertainment, and new weather; than by taking part in our annual NABS Fantasy Football League? Continue reading for the facts.
NABS Fantasy Football is an annual event that the national student division puts on to both promote friendly competition amongst participants and to continue to fundraise in order to meet the initiatives set out by our national office. In total, we have four concurrent leagues running based on geography and each league has space for twelve participants to register.
In Fantasy Football, the commissioner of the league will invite you to register for the event by submitting pertinent information for communication and request a payment to NABS of $25. This registration fee secures your spot for the season. Once registration is complete, the commissioner will contact registered participants with a link inviting them to the league and to a virtual draft. It is during this draft that participants will be able to create their team, select their players, and even name their team. After this draft, each week two teams will face each other, with the ability to participate in trades, free agency, and other opportunities to optimize the experience.
I am happy to serve as the commissioner for this year's Midwest League for NABS Fantasy Football and invite all of you to register for this amazing fundraiser. Currently, I have eight, yes only eight, spots left in my Midwest league. The winner captures $100 and the respect of their peers. Last year, two winners of leagues were non-members and the Midwest league champion was only 10 years old. Don't miss your opportunity to register and take part in this popular connection building opportunity. To register, simply reply to this email or contact yours truly at (804) 801-7674 and we can secure your place in the league. Happy Monday and may your week be an eventful one.

With Love,
