Thanks to the many teams who created Team Web Sites for the ICCF Champions League 2004! And thanks to the excellent judging panel for making the difficult choices to name the top sites. Only one team could win the sponsor's prize for "Best Team Web Site", but the judges selected several top web sites, which are recognized below. Congratulations to the teams with the sites recognized below and to the webmasters who created and maintain them, and special congratulations to our overall winner, the number one team web site from group FT-1 -- Four Wise Arbiters !

It's not too early to start thinking about next season. Though there are no announced prizes at this time, team logos and web sites add to the fun and attraction of this great team event. Review the web sites below and the great logos that won top accolades this season and start planning your team's entries for next season. You can see all the logos and web site addresses on the Team Web Sites and Logos page. It's an impressive listing with many teams participating.

Special thanks to the sponsor of this fun competition IPV ("Investiciju portfeliu valdymas") and its managed fund "ZPR US Small Cap Value Fund". Please see Best Team Web Site Sponsor's Message for this competition and the general Awards for 2004-2006 season announcement.
