MHL World Championships - qualifiers
How it works
Micras is divided up into 4 "zones" based on geograhical location. 16 nations will participate in the Championships, with the 6 MHL full members all automatically qualifying for the tournament. The host nation will be picked out of those 6 nations. The remaining 10 places will be decided via qualification. Each zone has a quota of 2.5 teams for the tournament, with Inter-zonal play-offs at the end (Zone 1 v Zone 2 & Zone 3 v Zone 4). The format for each zone is To Be Decided.
- Please say if I have missed anyone out on the list!

I don't think you should have automatic entry for the World Championships. Ice hockey isn't popular enough for that to work. I think Mercury would rather submit a combined team rather than one for each of its territories, but don't include us in the list just yet.

This. The only reason we do auto-membership for the FMF is because football's so popular IRL
