Out of the 18 invited teams [3 teams in each division (6); 2 divisions within each conference (3)], here are the teams that may be part of the "9 teams already signed", listed per the final 2012 Club Rankings:
USAU Pro Flight
*1 - Austin Doublewide
2 - San Francisco Revolver
3T - Boston Ironside
3T - Raleigh Ring of Fire

Projections are based on the USA Ultimate flight selection and vicinity to other elite ultimate teams. Primarily, Elite flight teams would want to seek out a better competition system than the USAU-offered Triple Crown Tour, regardless of their players' MLU/AUDL ambitions.
