No, I'm sorry, this is not another joke announcement. It's the real thing this time.

CPL 10 IS HERE!

You've all been anticipating it. You've all been clamoring for it. It's been a long wait, but we're finally ready to start CPL again.

With this being the 10th edition of CPL, we're hoping to make this our most historic and awesome yet. If you want to be part of it, sign up now!

SIGN UP FOR CPL 10

Alright, all good, but when does it actually start?

Sign-ups will run for two weeks from today. The first week of preseason starts right after, on Monday, October 16. If you have friends who are interested in maybe playing BW, now is the time to get them to sign up!

Anything new this time around?

As you might have guessed from the preseason map pool that was posted earlier, we will have a three week preseason this time around. We know you all want to get to the regular season portion as soon as possible, but we had some tiering issues last season and wanted to make sure we got an as accurate picture of everyone's skill level as possible.

I want to help out! How can I volunteer?

Feel free to hit up someone from @ staff if you're interested in helping out with organizing, casting or any other area. This league runs 100% on volunteer work and we can always use help!

Damn, I'm hype! I can't wait to start!

Tonight Airn will be kicking off the season with a CPL FFA and a showmatch on his stream, if you're interested in getting your hands warmed up. Keep an eye out for the link, it should be starting around 6pm US Central. We'll be starting up other CPL related activities eventually, and once preseason starts up we'll be casting games too!

I'm new here! What's CPL?

For anyone who's new: the Coach-Pupil League (CPL) is a StarCraft: Brood War league designed to help newer and lower skilled players learn and improve their skills in a competitive team league format.

You sign up, get ranked with other players of around your same skill level, and then sign up to play a best of three match each week. Each team has one or more experienced coaches who give players tips on improving their play and set up special practice sessions.

After the end of a week, the matches we played get cast on Twitch from replay. Keep an eye out on our stream announcements for your moment in the spotlight.

We welcome anyone at any skill level, even if you're completely new to the game. If you're interested in giving it a shot, do sign up!
