    As a former frequent sports BIF participant and occasional OP, I'm making a brief return to the sports BIF world to run the World Cup BIF. I ran one the last time around and it's back by popular demand (ok, only 2 people asked about it, but that seemed popular enough.)

    Rules: If you sign up, you are committed to sending at least 60 oz of quality beer. Send beer you'd like to receive. Everyone should ship within one month of receiving a target.

    Link: https://bracketchallenge.fifa.com/bracket/leaguejoin/4f322084

    Sign up with your BA name and message me with your shipping information. If you cannot signup with your BA name, please include your bracket name in your message. Signups go until the website stop taking new brackets.

    Traders in good standing only.

    Was looking for a small BIF to join this summer. All signed up.

    In case anyone was having trouble - first you need to create bracket, then you need to join the league. League code is 4f322084 (the end of the link in the OP).

    Joined. Should be an interesting tournament with some of the big name countries not qualifying. Is there a way to see everyone else’s brackets?

    That would be me. Guess I already had an account, and it wouldn't let me change my username.

    This sounds great! So glad this has been set up. For clarification purposes what do you define by "quality beer"? Is there a certain rating we are going by? Thanks!

    No, I live by the life rule of don't be a dick. Send a box you'd like to receive and everything works out fine. I don't like setting rules by rating because not everyone agrees with them. Take into account targets style preference and you'll be good.

    I'll divide up based on number of entries. I'll probably do a 2nd place, maybe 3rd depending on entries.

    I'm glad we're doing this again. This will give me a reason to pay attention to the World Cup since Team USA isn't in it this time. I won 4th place last time and got a nice haul:
