Win $15,000 In The 2024 NFFC Online Auction Championship
Posted: Wed Feb 21, 2024 10:50 am
One of the hottest contests in the NFFC is our Online Auction Championship, which was established in 2020 and has now maxed out on the number of teams for three straight years. In 2023, we raised the grand prize from $10,000 to $15,000 and finished with a record 840 teams in 70 leagues.
This year we expect another bump in participation but have tempered that a bit just because of time constraints. We are shooting for 888 teams in 74 leagues, which is a busy, busy schedule this off-season. We'd love to finish with more than 74 leagues, but there's only so many days in the drafting off-season, right?
The NFFC Live Auctions continue to be private leagues where all of the prize money stays within each league, but the demand is much higher for our NFFC Online Auction Championship and thus the need is there for an overall championship. We debuted our software in 2020 without an overall prize pool and then sold out all 408 teams in 2021 enroute to offering a $5,000 grand prize. That grand prize doubled in 2022 and rose to $15,000 in 2023 and that's where we're at in 2024 as well. Our goal is to build up the secondary overall prizes going forward.
Anyway, we love the way this contest is trending and we hope it continues to grow in 2024.
We are paying the Top 3 in each league and the Top 15 overall. First place in each league is $700 with second place paying $300 and third place $100.
We will again offer $150 Online Auction Championship leagues this year, along with $250 and $500 leagues, with each league allocating the same amount of money to the overall prize pool. All leagues are eligible for the $15,000 grand prize.
Michael O'Brien of Lakewood, Colorado won the 2023 NFFC Online Auction Championship and that $15,000 grand prize as he's now a two-time NFFC national champion. He also won the 2021 NFFC Football Challenge Points national title and has won several league titles in the NFBC and NFFC. Mike joins Michael Goodrich (2022), Ryan Burt (2021) and Michael Cole (2020) as national champions of this contest. Michael actually won his league and national title from a $250 OLAC last year.
Players who competed in this contest last year will tell you that the software is fantastic and you can get done with a 12-team, 20-round auction in a couple of hours. The online auction software has improved so much so quickly that it's as easy as competing in a draft, except you are in on every player who is nominated. It's a blast.
Enjoy the 4th annual national championship and budget your $200 wisely. You are definitely in on every player...as long as you have the money to pay for them!! Enjoy.
