RULES AND REGULATIONS

1. The value of your team must not exceed the posted budget.  I have tried to ensure that members cannot select a team that exceeds the budget, but the scripting used to verify team totals may not be compatible with your browser.  You are responsible for keeping your team under the allowable budget.  If your team exceeds the allowable budget, it will be deleted. 
2. Team changes must be received before the posted deadlines (typically 7:00 p.m. local time of the event for SX races). Deadlines may change for certain events due to time zones (i.e. International rounds).  Click the SCHEDULES link to the left for a complete listing.
3. Participation is limited to Motonews.com members.  

 INSTRUCTIONS

1. Click on JOIN NOW and follow the instructions to validate your motonews account and sign up your team name on motoleague.  If you are not a Motonews member, you can follow the link to the Subscribe page.
2. Click on LOGIN to validate your session.  You will not have to sign in again if your browser accepts cookies.  You are automatically logged in if you are joining for the first time. 
3. On the top of the menu to the left, select the league you wish to play (U.S. Supercross, U.S. Motocross).
4. Once you are in the desired race league, click on SELECT RIDERS to choose your team for an upcoming event.
5. You must select a team for each event in the series.  If you do not select riders for an event your team will score zero points.  
6. To ensure that you do not forget to select a team for an upcoming round you may select riders weeks in advance of the event.  For example, you can select a team for round one, return to the updates page and then select a team for round two (if you use the Back button to return to the updates page it will speed up the process).  
7. Race results and team results will be posted shortly after each event. 

1. To maximize your chances for points, you may select up to ten riders for your team.  Winning teams usually try to select a few less expensive riders that they feel will make it into the top twenty and score points.
2. The U.S. 125 Supercross series is split into East and West rounds.  Rider's regular region (125 E, 125 W) is noted beside their name in the rider selection list.  Ensure that you select 125 East riders for East events and vice versa.  If the rider you choose does not compete, you will score zero points for that rider.  The U.S. Motocross events are not split into East and West regions.
3. Rider prices will be adjusted every few rounds.  Strong riders will have their prices raised and will be more difficult to hire under your budget constraints.  Struggling riders will have their prices reduced and may be more attractive to team managers due to their bargain prices.    

 POINTS AWARDED

1. Points are awarded based on the AMA's point system.  Points are awarded for first through twentieth place.  If your rider wins a main event (125 or 250), you will receive 25 points.  See the table below for a full listing of points awarded.
2. Points are now awarded to a rider no matter what class he competes in.  Therefore, if a rider switches between the 125 and 250 class or rides two different classes, teams will receive as many points as the rider scores for the day.

3. In the event of a tie, the team that selected their riders earlier wins.
