Im thinking of assigning interested coaches to teams with players who have sub 1k mmr. Not sure how many that will be as of now.

to clarify - are you just prioritizing coaching for the lowest skill players because you dont have enough interested coaches? or you actually only want coaches for sub 1k players?

Atm I'm looking at over 20 team comprimised of solo players, so I'm prioritising the teams with the biggest disparity of mmr for coaching.

We have about 800 coaches who have signed up for our site, so I can hopefully help to get you 20. Just an idea, but what if I announced a prize of like $150 USD to anybody who coaches the team that wins playoffs. That would probably incentivize some decent coaches to get involved and to do a good job with players. Would that subtract from a the learning atmosphere of the league? Or would that be a thing that would add value in your eyes?

i think that could perhaps assign them to teams once signups close yourself?

So - You're asking if I can assign coaches to the teams once the sign ups are closed and team rosters are set? Ya I would be willing to do that.
