How the league works

Nine things every owner meets in a season, in the order you meet them. Twenty minutes, start to finish.

    Find your league page

    Each league has a home page: standings, this week's matchups, weekly bonuses and the scoring rules, all on one screen. Switch seasons from the header to compare years.

  3. 03

    Set your lineup before kickoff

    Rosters lock at the first game of the week. Your week panel flags hurt starters and anything waiting on you; the roster page shows who you have and how they have scored.

    Do thisNothing on the bench that should start.

    Trade, and see how it aged

    Every deal across the seven leagues is recorded from Sleeper with the assets exchanged, a value read at the time and how it looks now. Weigh a new one in the calculator first.

  5. 05

    Vote on the rules

    League rules change through member proposals. Suggest a change, vote when a ballot opens, and watch it move from draft to ratified. Dues and payouts are recorded here too.

    Do thisPay your dues before the first game.

    Read the bylaws
  6. 06

    Bets and side action

    Gentleman's bets ride on Week 17 results; side bets are anything two owners agree on. Both sides accept before a bet counts, and settlement is tracked against the record.

  7. 07

    Draft day

    The draft board follows Sleeper pick by pick, with slot preferences, the countdown and a live companion once the clock starts.

  8. 08

    Read the numbers

    Power rankings, dynasty health, head-to-head history, playoff odds and season leaders, computed from every week in the record.

  9. 09

    Tune what the league tells you

    Notification preferences by category, your email and LeagueSafe address, and a vacation flag for when you need a break. If an owner leaves, their team is listed for takeover.
