You could also claim an existing OPL-eligible team in an existing league. Not all of these would be eligible, some some likely are.

Niv - Just a thought, but you could add OPL eligibility to the claim teams page to make it easier for interested people to find OPL teams.
OPL-eligible teams now have an OPL icon next to them on the claim teams page.
It is important to note that if a league has expired teams in it, no team in that league is actually OPL eligible. So every team in the league will need to be picked up and paid for in order for all teams in that league to be truly OPL eligible.
What this icon shows is a top-6 team in an OPL-eliglible league that, if the league were to have no expired teams in it, would be eliglble for OPL.
