One fantasy player needs to start/manage the competition within FSZ and setup the various rules for player point scoring, finals series, the draft time and player trades.
To get started, simply visit ‘New Game’, Select Football as the sport, H2H as the game model, and any of the upcoming competition seasons to play.
Once the competition is created, an invite code will be shown on screen to allow the manager to invite other players to join. This should be done 1 to 2 weeks prior to the real Football season opener, to allow time for all players to research their desired teams prior to the draft event.
There is a maximum amount of fantasy players that can take part and join any comp. This is typically equates to about half that of the real competition so that player talent is not spread too thin. The system can handle an odd number of entries, however, 1 player would have a bye each week.
The fantasy game will appear in your ‘My Teams’ area under ‘Upcoming’.
Each login (user account) for FSZ can place only 1 entry per Football H2H fantasy competition at a time. You can play in multiple competitions at the same time though. Note, this is different to our Grouped Player game model.
Your competition will be private between players, with no public vision of teams or results once the comp starts.
The Player draft event will take place at your nominated date and time before the opening round of the chosen season to setup the initial teams, and play can then begin. Due to the length of a Football season, it is possible to start a fantasy comp at any point throughtout the real season.
