Managing YourBasketballChallenge

With YourBasketBallChallenge we have tried to make just about every aspect of the game configurable for you. All of this is done online securely with your own username and password.

Playing YourBasketballChallenge

For players, we've tried to provide the easiest and most efficient user-interface available for making picks and displaying reports.

Making Picks

The first thing a player does is make their picks for the tournament bracket. This means that the player must select a winner for each of the 63 games and enter a tie-breaker total final score for the championship game. Scoring is very simple, for each team the player picks correctly, they win the associated number of points assigned to that round by the administrator. The administrator may choose to associate other tournament statistics to prizes as well.

Bracket Printing

The game provides several reports to keep players coming back to the site as the tournament plays - three different bracket reports (blank, player picks, tournament results), team pick report and a players point report.

Tell A Friend

Our "Tell A Friend feature allow players to easily send email to their friends to get them to play.

Prizes

And of course the prizes section. That's why their playing! Players will be able to view what all the prizes are and what they are awarded for. Pictures can be included as well.
