Draft day.
Players will pick their rosters live in a draft room, one pick at a time, with a chat running beside the board. Every pick will land on every screen the moment it is made, so the whole league watches the draft happen together.
Fantasy leagues, coming soon
Your own fantasy league. On the hub your audience already knows.
Coming to your hub: players will draft a roster of real athletes, name a captain, then trade and pick up free agents all season, on the same branded hub as your pick'em and brackets. It is not open yet. Join the waitlist and be first in.
How it will play
What fantasy will look like on Fanzava.
A draft day, a roster worth owning, and moves to make once the draft is done. Your hub will run all three.
Your roster, your captain.
Every player will own a roster of real athletes drafted from the league's team rosters, and name a captain from it. The roster will sit on its own page in the league, and it is theirs to manage all season.
Make your moves.
A bad draft will not end anyone's season. Players will propose trades to each other, accept or counter the offers they get, and pick up athletes nobody drafted.
The platform advantage
Fantasy that fits where your audience already is.
Most fantasy products ask your audience to go somewhere new. A separate app, a separate login, someone else's branding.
Fantasy on Fanzava will run on your hub. Same branded experience, same login, same players: extended into a new format. One hub, one dashboard, one audience doing more.
Step by step
How a fantasy league will run.
A fantasy league on Fanzava will be a season-long draft league. This is how one will run, from the setup wizard to the first pick. None of it is open to players yet.
Set it up.
A hub admin will create a fantasy league in the same setup wizard used for pick'em and brackets, and pick the sports league it runs on.
Players join.
Each player will join the league and create their team, with the same login they use for everything else on your hub.
The draft starts.
Once at least two teams are in, a hub admin will start the draft and the room will open for every player at once.
The draft length.
The draft will run one round for every roster spot, so the roster size set for the league decides how long draft day goes.
The player pool.
Athletes will come from the team rosters in the sports data feed, not a list anyone on your hub types in. Players will filter the pool by position.
League rules everyone can read.
The league's settings will sit on a rules page inside the league, where every player can read them and nobody but a hub admin can change them.
Pick'em, brackets and fantasy, side by side.
Three ways to compete, one hub. Pick'em and brackets are open now. Fantasy will run alongside them, with the same branding and the same players.
Pick'em
Pick the result of each game, week by week, and score on what actually happens.
Brackets
Pick every matchup of a knockout tournament before it starts, then watch your picks survive or bust.
Fantasy
Coming: draft a roster of real athletes and manage it all season, with a captain, trades and free agents.
Questions about fantasy.
Which plans include fantasy?
Fantasy is not open yet. When it opens, it will be included on Starter, Growth, Pro, Scale, and Enterprise. It will not be part of Free. How many fantasy leagues a hub can hold depends on the plan, and the full feature matrix is on the pricing page.
Is this a public fantasy game?
No. It will run inside your hub, under your brand, and all player data will stay in your hub. A hub admin will set it up and invite players; it is not a public platform anyone can wander into.
Is fantasy open now?
Not yet. Players cannot join or play a fantasy league today. Join the waitlist and we will get in touch when it opens on your hub.
Can we run fantasy alongside our pick'em pool?
That is the plan. It will run in the same hub as your pick'em and bracket pools, under the same branding, with the same players and the same login. Pick'em and brackets are open now.
How does the draft order work?
It will be a snake draft. The pick order reverses each round, so whoever picks last in one round picks first in the next, and nobody is stuck at the back of every round.
Will there be a chat during the draft?
Yes. The draft room will have a chat beside the board, and every message will reach everyone in the room as it is sent, alongside every pick.
Where do the athletes come from?
From the team rosters in the sports data feed. The player pool will be league data, like the schedule, so nobody on your hub has to build it by hand.
What does joining the waitlist commit us to?
Nothing. We get in touch when fantasy opens on your hub, and no commitment comes with it.
