As we quickly approach the FPL deadline for gameweek 1, here’s everything you need to know about joining a league, if you haven’t already.
After creating your squad, managers can both join and create a league. As a user you can join up to 25 invitational leagues and a maximum of 5 public leagues which is 20 randomly assigned teams.
