Re: Idea to Balance Championship Divisions

1 goes in A, 2 goes in B, 3 goes in C...6 goes in F, 7 goes in A, 8 goes in B...n goes in the next-in-sequence of A-F.

Assign A-F to random division names.

The problem (or not) with this method is that anybody can generate a division list with a few minutes and some programming knowledge, and knowing which teams are signed up.
You can fix that by grabbing the next 6 teams, randomizing them, then assigning them A-F.
