With Pokemon Home coming in sometime January, we have decided that it is finally time to have another UU team tournament this year to further the progression of the tier. This means our likely start date will be November 8th for the first week of the tour, and will likely be 8 teams, so a 7-week regular season, and 2 weeks for playoffs. SCL is already on Week 8, so there should be minimal overlap.
With that being said, we did not want a full SS tour, so the tiers for this tour will be as follows:
3 SS UU / 1 SM UU / 1 ORAS UU / 1 BW UU / 1 DPP UU / 1 ADV UU / 1 GSC UU / 1 RBY.
*Baton Pass is banned from ADV UU and BW UU in this tournament.
+No Liepard or Riolu in BW UU
This may be reduced to 8 slots depending on player signups.
Like mentioned earlier, we are looking to have 8 teams, and that is the purpose of this thread. Post below if you would be interested in managing, and feel that you could commit to staying around for the entirety of the tour. Managers will be able to purchase themselves, but it will be in lieu of a round 1 pick in order to keep it fair. This year there are comanagers, but only one will be able to play. As it is a Snake Draft, the pick order will be randomized and announced a couple of days after player signups. There will be 14 rounds of drafting.

With all that out of the way, these are the qualifications we are looking for; managers will be chosen based on experience in UU tournaments, involvement in the community, competence, and historically demonstrating good behavior. If you're signing up as a new manager, include solid reasoning as to why you would be a good manager based on these qualities. No shitposts masquerading as sign-up posts, so no "in" posts, please.
If you are a returning manager, make sure to identify the team which you are reclaiming by the letter assigned to it. Returning managers will be given priority to reclaim their existing teams, but they may not take over a team that was not previously theirs.

example:

For new managers, the returning managers have priority to claim their previous teams, so when choosing a team to take over, try to choose one that will not be taken. Below are the list of teams, their assigned letter, and list of retains:
