Friendlies

National Team friendlies are played each Friday at 8 PM (Hattrick Time) by National Teams that do not have a World Cup match scheduled at that time. These matches are pretty much equivalent to the friendlies that clubs play midweek.

In order to schedule a friendly, the National Team coach must either challenge another team or accept a challenge in a manner similar to club challenges. The process is slightly different however, as the system does not notify the National Team coach of a challenge. National Team coaches must send messages or HT-mails to each other to set up the friendly. If a team doesn't have a friendly, there one will book automatically on Thursday.

The challenger is able to choose the stadium where the match will be played. Any stadium may be chosen, but it will always be considered neutral ground, regardless of the location of the stadium. There are no fees for stadium rental.
