I think it's very doable. And I'm happy to help out, lead the charge, fall off the cliff, whatever. (Heck, I've done all this before.)

For Subbuteo, we roughly do it this way:

* Tournaments must provide acceptable notice to ASA leadership (a month).
***** I'd say this is an acceptable standard for MFCA, too.

* Tournaments must have a minimum number of players (I think 4). That's OK because A) we have fewer players total to pick from, and B) the game is just different. Four guys can play 20 games in a day.
***** MFCA, however, can't do that due to the nature of our game. I'd suggest the minimum should be 8 players.

* Results are submitted IN FULL to the ASA Ranker Person (official title, sort of), and he produced both rankings for the year (Sept.-Aug.) and 2-year rolling rankings.
***** That might be going a bit overboard for us. Let's get the single-year stuff done first. The forms should be simple - it really just needs to contain each score (coaches names, not teams) in each round. I, or whoever is in charge, can figure it out from there.

* Players have their top five tournament finishes counted in the rankings.
***** I'm not married to this concept. I kind of think if you show up for a sanctioned tourney, it should count. If players were given the option of dropping their lowest finish per year, I'd be OK with that too. Everyone has a bad day.

* Tourneys are placed on the Calendar on the ASA web site (which is buggy right now, DON'T go there).
***** I'm sure we can do this easily.
