5 Spots Left: NFFC Gladiator 2-Hour League 7
Posted: Thu Feb 13, 2025 3:43 pm
Over the last several years, the industry has been moving toward lower-priced best ball leagues with smaller rosters. They include leagues where the drafts can get done in a short amount of time with nice overall prizes. Draft and be done, yet turn a small fee into a potentially good grand prize.
Well, we've taken notice and in the NFBC we created the Gladiator Championship three years ago and that contest has sold out for three straight years. It is a $50 price point where you draft just your 23 starters and let the stats play out over the 162-game season. Draft and be done. This year, we sold out with 1,950 teams.
So it only made sense to follow a similar path in football. We are debuting our NFFC Gladiator Championship in 2025 with a unique format that includes 12-team leagues, 14-player rosters and a $50 price point. Here's the kicker: It's Best Ball scoring BUT ALL 14 OF YOUR PLAYERS SCORE POINTS FOR 17 WEEKS!!!
You never set your starting lineup. You don't do anything after Draft Day. You just draft 14 players who hopefully stay healthy long enough to score the most points in your league and the most points in this contest. If so, you could win a $200 league prize and the $7,500 grand prize.
Here's the contest link and the details of the contest:
https://nfc.shgn.com/rules/2544
NFFC GLADIATOR CHAMPIONSHIP
Entry Fee: $50 Per Team
League Size: 12 Teams
Rounds: 14
Draft: KDS and Third Round Reversal
Contest Size: 2,100 Teams (175 leagues)
Time: Extended Drafts & Nightly Drafts February through April; longer if needed
Scoring: All 14 players on each team score points for 17 weeks
Prizes: Pay Top 3 in Each League and Top 25 overall
Here's your roster requirements:
1 - QB
2 - RBs
3 - WRs
1 - TE
1 - Team Kicker
1 - Team Defense/Special Teams
1 - SuperFlex (QB, RB, WR, TE)
4 - Flex (RB, WR, TE)
Now you can start two QBs in this format, but this isn't a normal SuperFlex contest because only 24 QBs can be drafted. In normal SuperFlex leagues, all 32 starting quarterbacks will go quickly, but here you can still win by drafting your second QB later because you will still have plenty of choices. Seeing when the QBs get drafted in this format will be interesting and I can't wait to get these drafts started.
Anyway, prizes are based on 2,100 teams and we won't go over 2,100 teams. These drafts should get done in a few days and nightly drafts could be completed in an hour or less. Draft and be done. It's a survivor-of-the-fittest contest with a $7,500 grand prize. Good luck everyone and let's enjoy the off-season with some intense Gladiator drafts. Who's ready?
We'll offer 2-Hour and 4-Hour drafts now and we'll load up daily and nightly drafts soon. Thanks all and enjoy.
