Overview

The Hattrick Manager Network Open is a tournament based primarily on the Hattrick Manager Network. In 06/05/2014 Hattrick.org introduced to all hattrick users The Manager Network, a means for managers to keep track of teams and managers they care about. It gives you the option to invite any user to join your Network. In my view, a very good way to start a friendship. It also gives the users a quick way to scan what teams in your Network are up to. Most importantly by introducing the Network Hattrick wants to lay the foundation for a more connected and fun experience. In the end helping to improve the design of the game and navigation of the site.

Welcome

The Hattrick Manager Network Open is a tournament based on the Hattrick,org Manager Network module. One of it's main goals is to create a community of managers interacting, with the goal of instilling fair and friendly play. Please feel free to access the in-game forum to discuss and share your thoughts on match outcomes, as well as any ideas you have regarding the tournament.

Season 2 Word

The second season of the H.M.N. Open is about to begin and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all returning managers that participated in the Inaugural season. I would also like to give a warm welcome to managers who are taking part in this tournament for the first time.

This being the H.M.N.O's second season, it has 31 clubs vying to dethrone the tournaments current ring holder the Ferocious Kiwi’s. The Kiwi's who won the inaugural season's top prize by posting a spotless record are no-doubt ready to defend and remain the ring bearers. Best of luck to all clubs.

Inaugural Open

This section is collapsed. Inaugural Word

Welcome one and all to the inaugural Hattrick Manager Network Open. After a quick glance, I see a pool of talented clubs. There is a wide variety in terms of skill, from the up and comers, as in my club the WC Oldboys, to good clubs, as well as impressive clubs, and the scary to look at clubs. Obviously during this two month tournament we'll be witness to some one sided matches, as well as tough, heart fought ones and what I'm hoping for some gut wrenching nail biting affairs. I suppose if there is a goal to be achieved in this tournament it is for managers to start out as friends and by the end of it all, to be yet better friends. Remember, as the old saying goes, winning is not everything, its participating that's important. Good luck to one and all.
