FIFA/UEFA Pick'em Soccer Pools

The Pick'em Soccer Pool format is a simple format, where you pick each game of a large competition like the World Cup or European Football Championship. Pick every game each round of the tournament to see who comes out on top.

How to Play

  1. Entrants pick each game of the tournament, with the option of selecting a draw in the group stages.
  2. For each correct pick, the entry earns 1 point.
  3. The entry with the most total points at the end of the tournament is the winner.

2026 World Cup

The 2026 World Cup begins on June 11, 2026 with 48 teams in 12 groups playing 3 matches in a round robin. The knockout round portion of the event starts with 32 teams as 16 are eliminated after the group stage. The knockout round is a single elimination tournament to determine the champion.

Options

Escalating Points - Games are worth more the deeper into the tournament they are (e.g. Group Stage - 1pt; Round of 32 - 2pts; etc.).

Starting Round - You can start your pool with the group stage or the knockout rounds.

Pick'em Soccer Pools will be available on or before Jan 15, 2026 @ 12:00pm.

Site News

  • Oct 1, 2026 - If you have names or entry names that show up as ??? on the site, please reach out and we can get those updated to what they should be. We have attempted to resolve the encoding issue that caused it, so hopefully it's not a problem going forward.
  • Sep 21, 2026 - It's shaping up to be one of those seasons with several Second Chance Survivor pools. Just a reminder, if you set up a 2nd pool of the same type with us in a season, we do offer a discount on the second pool.
  • Sep 20, 2026 - We've been working to make our Football update process more efficient this week - so that we can fully automate it going forward. We will be doing some spot checks after the 1pm games are updated to make sure everything is still working as expected. We're not expecting anything major as we've done some testing with fake leagues for Week 1, but if there are any issues, we will be working this afternoon to clean them up, so please hold off on messaging us until the late afternoon window is complete.
  • Sep 16, 2026 - Hockey is available for the 2026-2027 season! We opened it up a few days ago, and things are all ready to go.
