Forget complicated brackets that fall apart with one bad pick. This is a whole new game!
The Annual March Madness NCAA College Basketball Tournament showcases the best teams from across the country competing for the championship title.
A revolutionary concept that simplifies the fill-in-your-bracket contests by making it both simpler and more visual.
Traditional fill-in-your-brackets contests involve little more than straight-out guessing with the potential to blow up a particular bracket with one wrong pick. We've solved that problem!
We've changed the bracket paradigm that requires participants to select all potential outcomes for the entire tournament. Instead, you simply select 10 teams!
This differs from traditional fill-in-your-brackets pools. We use the bracket seeding in a specialized proprietary selection process that allows for the equitable distribution of tournament teams.
This new innovative pool concept allows participants to monitor their own as well as their competition's pool rankings as the tournament progresses through each round until the eventual National Champion is crowned.
Pool participants enjoy full visibility of their competition and their own ongoing status in the pool.
This concept fuels strong competition and intense rivalries, adding excitement to a March Madness tournament that remains one of the year's most anticipated and thrilling sports events!
Forget about managing your pool on paper or spreadsheets!
Now, you have a 100% online tool to track your pool standings effortlessly.
Invite your friends, compete, and discuss basketball directly in the built-in chat feature.

Seeding Process: The National College Athletic Association (NCAA) will seed all teams from 1 through 16 in each year's tournament.
The pool will commence when the 64 teams are finalized and the 1st round tournament games begin. Each player will perform their own ten-team draft.
⚠️ Important: Pick only 10 teams, one selection at a time
Any team in the 64 is eligible to be selected as long as it doesn't violate the following rule: Players can't select a team with a pick lower than its seeding.
Selection Process: As players perform their individual draft of ten teams, they will not be allowed to pick a team lower than it has been seeded.
📋 Example: A 3rd seeded team may be selected on your 1st pick (first selection), but a 1st seeded team can't be selected after the 1st pick. A 2nd seeded team can't be selected after the 2nd pick, and so on.
If a participant doesn't violate the above selection rule, a team may be selected more than once.
✓ This selection rule will be automatically enforced in the application when players draft their teams.
