MySportsPool.net

MySportsPool.net gives your players a private, secure, full-featured, online environment for a better Sports Pool experience.  We are available 24/7 for NFL and NHL regular season and playoff pools

We provide pick'em pools where your players pick the winners of all games for every NFL week and game winners may be based on spreads if you choose.  For an NHL pool, players pick game winners for every Saturday although we may include some extra games around Christmas, the All Star break, and at the end of the season.

We also include up to 4 NFL elimination pools which may start on any date you want and may be based on spreads if you choose, independent of whether or not you chose to use spreads for game winners.  Alternatively, you may choose to handicap the elimination pool(s) by only allowing a team to be chosen once over the course of the season.

Over/Under bonus points are available for NFL regular season and NFL playoff pools.

For NFL and NHL playoff pools we allow your players to choose the Super Bowl or Stanley Cup Winner in the first playoff round for bonus points.  In the playoffs, game winners increase in value as the playoff rounds progress.  For NHL playoffs your players choose the winner of each series and bonus points are offered for correctly predicting the number of games to complete the series.

Players join your pool online and they can make and change their picks right up until picks cut-off time.  You can set picks cut-off time as the game time of each game or the first game, plus or minus the number of minutes or hours you specify.  Alternatively you can set picks cut-off as the first weekend game or Fridays at midnight for the NFL regular season with Thursday games cut-off as their game time. The pool's standings are updated automatically as games finish so the standings are always current.  Active pool appreciate MySportsPool.net as they can change their picks on late breaking news if you choose to allow picks cut-off based on each game.

The pool has full transparency, allowing any player to see the complete picks history for all players once a game has has passed it picks cut-off time.

In addition, the Pool Manager has full control over the Sports Pool.  The Pool Manager may enter or change any players's picks at any time including after game cut-off time and update the standings accordingly.  We also provide a number of tools to help manage your Sports Pool.
