    Online Drafts
    League Details: Each league will be composed of 15 teams, and each draft will consist of 50 rounds.

    Website: All Online Leagues will hold their drafts at https://nfc.shgn.com

    Random Draft Spot Selection: The NFBC will set each $150 Draft Champions league as they fill on a first-come, first-served basis. Once that league is filled for that draft time, the league will be closed or signups will continue for a second or third league for that date and time.

    Time Limit for Draft: If a participant does not make a selection in the allotted time, the draft room will select the top player from that owner's Player Queue and if no player is in the queue then the top available player from the player's default list will be selected. If there is a computer failure, an error made with a selection by an owner or any other type of technical malfunction, the draft moderator can stop the draft at any time and correct the error and then resume the draft. The NFBC reserves the right to allow the draft moderator to roll-back the draft if a technical error occurred, but if the desired player had already been selected before the draft was stopped, that player is no longer available to be drafted.

    Extended Drafts: are drafts where the pick timer is greater than or equal to one hour.

    Pick Timers Cut in Half for Extended Drafts: To improve draft efficiency, the pick timer will be cut in half for the remainder of extended drafts after specific rounds:

    - Football: After Round 21

    - Baseball: After Round 30


    Overnight Pause for Extended Drafts: Extended drafts are paused overnight from 1 AM ET - 9 AM ET.

    Moderated Drafts: If there is a computer failure, an error made with a selection by an owner or any other type of technical malfunction, the draft moderator can stop the draft at any time and correct the error and then resume the draft. The NFBC reserves the right to allow the draft moderator to roll-back the draft if a technical error occurred, but if the desired player had already been selected before the draft was stopped, that player is no longer available to be drafted.

    Commissioner Decisions: All decisions made by the NFBC commissioner are final. Tough decisions sometimes must be made about eligibility rules, lineups, etc., and NFBC participants must accept the unbiased ruling of the NFBC commissioner.
    Setting Kentucky Derby Style (KDS) Preferences

    The NFBC will use Kentucky Derby Style (KDS) preferences for draft preferences in all $150 Draft Champions leagues. The Draft Preferences are listed as soon as you click on your team link. There you will see a list of 1 through 15 in order and an "Edit Preferences" link. Edit your list as often as you'd like and just save your preferences each time before the required deadline for this league.

    Here's what KDS does: The KDS process allows owners to rank their order of preference for Draft Day, ranking their preferences 1 through 15 BEFORE the leagues are randomly selected. Some owners would rather draft in the middle, if they are selected early in their league; others like to stay near the top and others like to move down to the lower end. KDS allows that if you are fortunate enough. A sample KDS from an owner could look like this:

    4
    15
    1
    9
    13
    3
    2
    14
    6
    12
    8
    5
    11
    7
    10

    If an owner wants the third pick and he is selected No. 1 overall in his league, he would choose 3 as his top option and he would then be moved to third in that league on Draft Day. NFBC officials will look at every owner's Draft Preferences after the leagues and orders are randomly selected, pick the highest available preference for each owner and then announce the draft orders for each league.

    Lineup Submission
    The weekly deadline for setting your NFBC starting lineup is on Mondays with the following exception(s):

    In the NFBC, you don't have to lock in your entire starting lineup on Mondays if you have players who don't play their first game of the week until Tuesday. You are allowed to lock in your starters on Monday 5 minutes before their scheduled games that day and also 5 minutes before their games on Tuesdays if that is their first game of the week.

    Example 1: If you have East Coast teams starting at 7:05 pm ET on Monday, you have to lock them into your starting lineup by 7 pm ET.

    Example 2: If you also have West Coast players who don't play until 10:05 pm ET, you then have until 10 pm ET to lock those starters in.

    If you have two outfielders playing their first games on Tuesday and you have one OF spot open in your starting lineup, you have until Tuesday night to finalize who you want in your starting lineup.

    On Fridays, the same flexible Set Lineup procedure is in place for hitters where you can lock in your starters 5 minutes before their scheduled starting time for that day. Those players lock 5 minutes before their SCHEDULED STARTING TIME and do not change based on weather or any other matters.

    NFBC team owners are also allowed to switch out any hitter (or hitters) from their starting lineup and replace him with a hitter from their reserve roster on Fridays. The deadline for doing that is 5 minutes before the start of that player's game on Friday or 5 minutes before Saturday's start time if that player's team is off on Friday. Pitchers will not be allowed to be moved out of your starting lineup at any time during the season; what is set on Monday remains for the remainder of the week for all pitchers. If there is an MLB tie-breaker game or games at the start of a new week, NFBC owners are allowed to reset their starting lineups for that game or games.

    If a game is cancelled on Monday or Friday and once NFBC receives official notice, players for those teams (hitters only on Fridays) would lock 5 minutes before their first game on Tuesday or Saturday.

    First Lineup Deadlines for Week 1: The MLB season starts on Wednesday, March 20 and 21st, 2024 with the two games in Seoul, South Korea between SD - LAD.. Those two games plus the March 28 - March 31st - slate of games will be included in Week 1 in the NFBC. Mid week bench switches for hitters only can be made for the first week of the contest on Friday, March 29th.

    All lineups must be submitted on the league website. Maximum of 50 players at all times.
    Position Eligibility
    The NFBC will use the following position eligibility rules in 2025:

    a) Players who played at least 20 games at any position in 2024 will qualify at that position for the entire 2025 NFBC season. Players who play 10 games at a new position in 2025 will be eligible at that position after they have played there for the 10th time during the 2025 MLB regular season. Any player who missed all of the previous season to injury or retirement will qualify at the position he last was eligible for in the majors.

    b) If a player did not appear in 20 games at any position, he qualifies at the one position he played most frequently the prior season in the majors. Designated Hitter is considered a position for these purposes (pinch-hitting is not). A player who only qualifies as a DH may only be assigned to the UT position. If a player's most games played at a position is less than 20 and tied among more than one position, the NFBC commissioner will assign eligibility at one position only based on prior year minor league games played.

    c) Those players who only pinch-hit in the majors in 2024 will be position eligible according to their minor-league games played status in 2024. They would qualify at the position they played the most games in the minors.

    d) Players who played all of 2024 in the minor leagues will be awarded position eligibility for the 2025 NFBC season based on the most games played at all levels in the minors for the previous year. NFBC will determine that one eligible position before Draft Day and that will determine that player's status for 2025 once he is called up to the majors. Those players who only pinch-hit or DH in the minors will only be UT-eligible.

    e) In random cases, such as being injured or out all season, resulting in ZERO GAMES being played at any professional level, a player's position eligibility will default to what it was entering the previous season. Multiple-position-eligibility DOES carry over provided the player met the 20-game requirement in their last major league season.

    f) The NFBC commissioner will rule on player eligibility prior to the draft as he deems necessary. In the rare occurrence a player’s eligibility is found to be not in line with NFBC rules, the correct position will be added but they WILL NOT lose eligibility at the previous listed position. ALL position eligibility locks in with the first pitch of Opening Day – not any international series – and no changes will be made after that date.
    Trades Between Managers
    To minimize the possibility of collusion, there will be no trading allowed.

    Free Agents
    There are no free agent pickups in $150 Draft Champions Leagues. What you draft is what you have to manage for the entire season. All rosters remain intact from Draft Day through the end of the season.
    Scoring Overview
    Teams are ranked by comparing their team totals to the other teams in their league. The team with the best total in each category receives 15 points and the team with the worst total receives 1 point. For Contests with Overall rankings, Overall points are calculated by ranking your team's statistics totals versus all other teams in the NFBC contest.
    Innings Pitched Minimum
    There is a 1000 innings pitched minimum requirement for all $150 Draft Champions leagues, but no minimum requirement for the number of starting pitchers or relief pitchers on each roster. Should any team not reach the required limit of 1000 innings pitched by the end of the season, the rankings will be altered to show that team getting 1 point in both ERA and WHIP. No other teams will switch positions in the standings, but the team that didn't reach the minimum IP will automatically earn 1 point in ERA and WHIP. NEW: No team that fails to reach the required limit of 1000 innings pitched will move down to help gain a better draft position after the season concludes. Standings will just alter if it affects prize money and the draft order will remain the same as the year-end standings.

Prize winners may also be required to provide evidence that the information in the entry for the Contest is accurate. The prize will only be paid to the person who is identified by NFBC as having submitted the entry for the Contest. Failure to submit accurate and complete information at any time may result in forfeiture of prizes. All taxes associated with the receipt or use of any prize are the sole responsibility of the winner. You are advised to consult your tax advisor for tax advice concerning your prize winnings. In the event that the awarding of any prizes to winners of the Contest is challenged by any legal authority, NFBC reserves the right, in its sole discretion to determine whether or not to award such prizes. If NFBC determines that a team is owned indirectly by a customer in order to circumvent the Eligibility Requirements, NFBC reserves the right, in its sole discretion to determine whether or not to award prizes or disqualify the team.

    Cash prizes are awarded in U.S. dollars. In the event of a tie, cash prizes are divided evenly among those who have tied. In the event that a league does not contain 15 teams, NFBC reserves the right to cancel the league and entry fees from that league will be refunded.

    Please allow 2-3 weeks, from the time your signed affidavit and release (and certification for tax withholding, if applicable) is returned to NFBC, to receive your prize. All prizes are awarded regardless of the number of entrants or amount of entry fees received. No substitution or transfer of prize is permitted.

    Errors
