Rules
- 💷 Pay £5 to join Last Man Balling and become a Baller. You will be asked to provide a name (as it will be displayed on the public leaderboard) and a phone number during the checkout process. You will then be added to the Last Man Balling WhatsApp group.
- 🍯 The entry fees contribute to the overall prize (or ‘Prizepot’) for winning the game. 90% of entry fees will go into the Prizepot, with the remainder covering running costs such as hosting, promotional, and administration fees. The more Ballers, the bigger the Prizepot.
- 🎯 Every week, you must select a team that you think will win. All team selections are provided on WhatsApp. All predictions must be submitted before the kickoff of the first match in the current Gameweek. Gameweeks are the same as those used in Fantasy Premier League.
- 🚫 You can only choose each team once. For example, if you choose Manchester City in Gameweek 1, you cannot choose them again for the rest of the game.
- 📅 The game lasts 20 weeks. This means that by the end of the game, you will have chosen every team once.
- ✅ If your predicted team wins, you earn 3 points.
- 🤝 If your predicted team draws, you earn 1 point.
- ❌ If your predicted team loses, you earn 0 points.
- 🏆 The Baller with the most points after 20 weeks becomes the Last Man Balling and wins the entire Prizepot.
- 🔄 Ballers can choose to pay £5 again and play the game all over again for the remaining 18 weeks.
- ❓ If you have any questions, please ask in the WhatsApp group or contact @LastManBalling on 𝕏.
