FM 24 Micronesia (D1) by Chillumu (All State Leagues & Cups)

Micronesia is arguably the weakest country in the game (paralleled only by Kiribati, North Mariana Islands, and Wallis & Futuna), and also belongs to the weakest continent. It is divided into 4 regions, covering a vast area, that makes travelling for matches difficult and expensive for a country with an underdeveloped and underfunded setup. This database covers all the tournaments on record, including aspects such as awards, prize money, formats, dates, history, and venues. Some liberties have been taken to make it more competitive, but the database is focused on being as true to the sources as much as possible. Things are discussed in more detail below, Please note the following disclaimers:

• The number of clubs and their statistics have not been altered. Neither have any player statistics.
It is possible that some of the teams are now extinct, but unless conclusive proof of this has been found, no team has been removed.

• All tournaments have a reputation of 1 as it was originally. Hence you have the worst league and cups in Oceania and the world.
• There are 4 states in Micronesia, each comprised of many islands - Yap, Pohnpei, Chuuk, Kosrae. Very little information exists regarding the latter two states, and all the clubs and tournaments in the game are limited to Yap and Pohnpei.
• Tournaments have at times been cancelled due to weather or funding issues. The database assumes that cancellations don't occur.
  
• Prize money information is hard to come by, but has been determined based on cost of living and cost of running a club in such a country. Thus, it may seem more than what's normal, but the inflated values are used to cover a magnitude and/or category of expenses which normally won't occur.

Super Cup

Micronesia Cup: Since 2023, a new annual futsal tournament has been created that is contested by a representative team from each state. This has been repurposed to a Group + Knockout cup contested by 6 teams - the winner of each of the 4 tournaments mentioned above, and the highest finishers in each league table that haven't already qualified. single leg (neutral) with playoffs - January to February rotated between 3 venues, with only 1 used every year to reduce travel, Pohnpei Island Central School Field (Pohnpei), YAP Sports Complex (Yap), PCC Track & Field Stadium (Koror).





Awards: Realistic Awards have been used for the Pohnpei Premier League based on sources, with them mirrored for the YAP league. The cups have basic fictitious tournament awards, and Micronesia as an yearly Manager, Player and Young Player Award.
