UEFA Euro Soccer Pool
The UEFA European Soccer Championship is second only to the World Cup. Football (or Soccer to Americans) is not only the most popular sport in the world but creates an incredible fervor every four years. While we await the next World Cup in 2026, the UEFA Euro Championship is a great opportunity to watch and compete with your family, friends, and colleagues.

UEFA Euro Format
This format is simple enough for the novice, yet challenging enough for the most serious basketball fans:
- Group Stage—In the group stage, the 24 teams that qualified for the tournament are broken into groups containing four teams each. Each team competes in a round robin tournament with the other three teams in its group. The two top teams in each group, and the four top 3rd place teams, advance to the Knockout Stage.
- Knockout Stage—The remaining 16 teams participate in a single elimination bracket pool. For those of you familiar with the NCAA Basketball tournament, think of the Knockout round as the soccer equivalent to the Sweet 16.
UEFA Euro Format
Here are the rules for our UEFA Euro Soccer pools:
- Pool Administrators have the option of including both the Group and Knockout Stage or limiting their pool to just the Knockout Stage.
- For the Group stage, pool members predict the finishing position of each team in all the groups and points are awarded for correct predictions. Points are awarded for each correct team ranking in each of the eight groups. As an example, if one (1) point is awarded per correct ranking, members could earn up to 24 points in the group stage (all 4 rankings correct in all 6 groups).
- For the Knockout stage, members pick all 15 games in the bracket and are awarded points for correct picks. They will pick the ACTUAL teams qualifying for bracket play, NOT those they predicted to advance. This means they will fill out their brackets AFTER the Group Stage is completed.
- Point values for both stages are configurable by the Pool Administrator.
- The goal is to be the member with the most points at the end of the UEFA Euro Tournament.
Most pools will include the Group stage to allow more pick variation.
