How scoring works
Every pick is simple: which teams survive to each round. Position in the group doesn't matter — just whether a team goes through.
| Pick | Teams | Points each |
|---|---|---|
| Through to Last 32 | 32 | 5 |
| Last 16 | 16 | 8 |
| Quarter-finals | 8 | 15 |
| Semi-finals | 4 | 25 |
| Final | 2 | 50 |
| 3rd-place game winner | 1 | 30 |
| Champion | 1 | 100 |
Maximum possible score: 738 points. The further a team you backed goes, the more it pays — so calling the champion is the biggest prize.
Prizes — and they grow with every entry
Right now 1 paid entry = a $10 pot:
- 🥇 1st place — $3 (30%)
- 🥈 2nd place — $2 (20%)
- 🏑 Hockey team trip — $5 (50%)
Example: every 100 entries = a $1,000 pot → 1st gets $300, 2nd gets $200, and $500 goes to the hockey trip.
Ties split the combined prize money equally (e.g. two-way tie for 1st shares 1st+2nd = 50%, so 25% each).
What you're supporting 🏑
