A year is a long time, but you've got a lot of work to do to get to that stage.
Either you'll need to recruit players with some gear or buy it yourself as I don't think you guys have it right now and I don't think the majority of your players are able to afford MM worthy gear either. Think I have 1 item which we've used on a MM and i think even then we replaced it as someone else came online to lend something so we upgraded.
Next is trusting your team with 30k's worth of gear each..
As i said a year is a long time and you might manage it, good luck!
Just remember your first attempt is likely to fail unless you've recruited a team who knows what they're doing. Even then this isn't always enough as both EE and UA have MM attempts which don't succeed.
