World Cup Soccer Pools
Score points for each correct pick during the 48 (group play) matchups in "Stage 1", and for each correct "Group Winner" selected to advance, and finally, for choosing a winner for each matchup in "Stage 2" (bracket picks). With our custom "pool options" managing your pool is a breeze. You'll be able to 'Invite' players to join from within your pool, provide 'Pool News' to your pool members and set custom point values for each round except the first round (group play). You can also manage the status of your pool members (active or inactive) and/or 'Delete' players if needed.
Throughout the 2010 FIFA World Cup soccer tournament, we'll update the results of each matchup and display the points for each round on your pool's 'Leader Board' for all of your pool members to view. Your pool also includes a "Trash Talk" message board where players can chat or talk trash with friends in the pool.
So get started today, create your own private 2010 "FIFA World Cup" soccer pool and invite all of your friends to join. All they have to do is make picks then sit back and enjoy while we take care of the rest! It's a great way to watch the world's best soccer stars as they compete in South Africa to bring home soccer's premier prize, the World Cup championship Trophy.
It's really EASY TO SETUP and lots of FUN TO PLAY!
