This is the pool format most people are familiar with:
- Members pick all 63 games of the NCAA tournament (15 games if you run a Sweet 16 pool)
- Points are awarded for each winning pick
- Points values increase as the tournament progresses (points per round are configurable by the Pool Administrator)
- The winning team is the team with the most points at the end of the NCAA Tournament
In less than 5 minutes, you provide us with all the information we need to run your pool for you. Supply us with your contact information, a pool password, and your customized pool settings.
Step 2 - Contact your pool members
After setting up your pool, you will receive a confirmation e-mail from runyourpool.com. This email contains a pre-formatted section that you can simply forward to the people that you'd like to join your pool. It contains a link and all the information they need to join.
Step 3 - Fill out brackets
Your pool members are provided with a bulletproof bracket submission form. No more incomplete or illegible brackets, and absolutely NO work for you, as the Pool administrator, to do.
Step 4 - Enjoy the Tournament!
We take over from there. Your pool standings and all other reports are updated in near real-time as games conclude.
Frequently, pool administrators want the ability to put members into different groupings or divisions. In an office pool, for example, it might be fun to have a contest between departments. Simply assign members to the correct departement (or whatever grouping works for your pool) and we'll track the statistics and standings of each individual group so you can compare them.
Do you have a different number of members in each group? No problem! We'll give you the group's average points so you can track it throughout the Tournament.
