Best Young Team

I can't argue with any of the shortlist, looks like a good selection

Yeah, I probably agree on that on second thought. I'll remove him.

Great selection, i agree with the first 5 teams.
The 1 month old team seems more like a "strike of luck" rather than 'managing skills' to win that classic
The manager also seems to be inactive for more than a week now

Decided on these six in the end. Most of the others on the long list did not really progress the previous season and did not score any big results. Completely missed Millican the first time round. And then I noticed a 1 month old team winning a classic. Will probably not make it out of the first round but nice to give him some attention.

- A team has to be younger than 2 real life years at the end of the season.
- A team has to be in at least Division 6 at the end of the season.
- The team has to be the first team of its manager that finished a full season. (you can't check this, so ignore this rule when nominating, I will do this)

It should be a lot easier to check than Breakthrough Team, because you'll be able to see the age of a team on the team page immediately instead of having to check the team history.
