How it Works

• No kickers
• Once you use a player, you can’t use them again the rest of the playoffs
• Lineups lock at kickoff of the first game each week
• Lineups are hidden once the first game kicks off
• Partial lineups are allowed if you run out of players

Entry Fees & Payments

• $25 per entry
• Up to 5 entries per person
• All payments handled through LeagueSafe
• Prize pool = all entry fees minus weekly high-score prizes
