ManagerZone brings together interesting and diverse people from all corners of the world. With different backgrounds, talents and personalities we can learn a lot from each other, wherever we live. Our common interest is in all things ManagerZone!

Now more than ever we are looking to showcase the talent, enthusiasm and character of the great managers who play our game.

In this first special edition of the Zone International we are delighted to present our first guest editor, the inimitable Hanzinho!

Hanzinho is the author and editor of this Zone International and the opinions expressed in his own unique way are his own. We like how he writes and we like what he wrote. We may not agree with everything, but that is the great thing about ManagerZone, you don't need to agree with everything to enjoy the experience!

There is a lot of humour in the Da Zone international and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

The Zone was conceived to allow the best and brightest amongst us to talk about their community, their leagues and their ManagerZone lives.

We hope to see more of Da Zone International and we hope to hear from other guest writers who would like to contribute to the International Zone.

The Zone International is for Managers throughout the world. This first edition is presented in English, and we hope that future languages will reflect the diversity in ManagerZone. Whilst not perfect, Google translate can help everyone enjoy this Zone International.

If any local Zone wishes to translate or use any article in their own Zone, please contact either Hanzinho or Crew and we will be delighted to help.
