Jack Belvedere distributed the Season 12 Intention Card to the League on 1/16/2011. Definately fill this out and return it to Jack. Please note that for Rookies, filling out the intention card does not quarantee you will be eligible for the Season 12 Rookie Draft list.

WHAT MAKES A ROOKIE ELIGIBLE FOR DRAFT?
*Player is in good standing with GOHA
*Player is not an "alt" of a GOHA veteran
*Player's AV is in BOTH the GOHA Main Group and corrently registered on the GOHA Website (Account has AV First Name / AV Last Name - we need to be able to find you in Second Life)
*Player must have participated in at least 6 qualifying games prior to the S12 Draft. Out of the 6 qualifiers, 4 MUST be participation in an official Farm Training Scrimmages (Minimum Qualifiers: 4 Farm Training Scrimmages + 2 Scrimmages)
*Player feels ready to go into the Draft. Rookies can opt to not go into the draft pool and be placed on a regulation team during S12 as they become more confident on the ice.
