Well, I just sent the e-mail reply, but I might as well post it here
in case anyone else is interested:

The best source for information about the *EFLs (Electronic Football
Leagues) is probably

http://www.pit.edu/~ktgst/soccer.html

There should be links there to the various home pages, rules and such.
(Well, there were the last time I checked, at least...)

Quickie summary:  UEFL, EEFL and LEFL (United, Experimental and Ladder
Electronic Football League, respectively) are resource-management
simulations; each team is given resources - in the form of players,
training/coaching "points" and cash - and expected to build their team.
The rules are quite simple, especially in the UEFL and LEFL, but the
game is still quite interesting.

If you need more information, feel free to drop me a line - I can either
expound at length about the various leagues (or at least the EEFL and
LEFL, since I'm not actually part of the UEFL) or point you towards
someone who can help you...

- Chris
