When are entries finalized?
Entries are finalized before the season starts. That preseason lock is a core part of the format.
Season-Long Format
Season-long fantasy leagues with preseason entry lock
This format is designed for players who want the full-season arc of fantasy competition without turning the experience into a weekly picks game. Build your entry before the season begins, finalize it, and let the standings tell the story from opening day forward.
Step 01
Enter before the season starts
Join a league and build your roster or entry before the sport's season gets underway.
Step 02
Finalize your season-long strategy
Because the entry is locked before opening day, your preseason strategy matters and every player choice carries weight.
Step 03
Follow the standings all year
As player stats build over the season, the leaderboard shifts and the competition stays active without weekly pick submissions.
Why the season-long model stands out
A preseason lock creates a different kind of challenge. Instead of adjusting every week or chasing the next single-game result, players commit to a full-season position and watch the league take shape through sustained player performance.
That structure also makes the format easier to understand: one entry window, one locked lineup or stat-based strategy, and one long competition driven by the numbers that matter to the league.

Common questions about the format
Do players make weekly picks?
No. This is not a weekly winner-pick experience. The competition plays out over the full season through player stats.
What happens after the season starts?
Once entries are locked, players track standings and follow how the chosen stats accumulate throughout the year.
