How to Play Football Squares (also known as Super Bowl Squares)

There are many different variations of how people play football squares, also known as Super Bowl Squares. We have a help page that you can use to learn How to Play Football Squares

Can I change the Rules and Payouts?

We provide a template of Rules, payouts, images, etc. for you to begin with, but you can edit them to match your needs.

If you put it within the Payment section, it will show on your Grid's Homepage, the confirmation page after a User makes their selection(s), and also on the email confirmation that the User receives.

It is very easy to add/remove players from your Grid, so if they don't pay on time you can easily remove them and let other Players choose their square.

As the Admin, you can always purchase new Grids, and they will show up on Grids page when you login as the Admin.

What happens if the Grid doesn't, or won't fill up?

When it comes to potentially not filling up a Grid, it is up to the Admin to decide how to handle it, but we usually recommend simply reducing the price of your squares and letting your existing Users select more Squares at the same price.

On the right side, there is a "Edit" drop down menu that has the option to select "Manage Numbers".

    • With a Single Grid, every User/Player selects a Square that will last them the entire season.
    • Once the Grid is full, the Admin generates the numbers for that week (e.g. Week 1)
    • After the game is complete, the Admin takes note of which Squares won.
    • After recording who won, the Admin will then generate a new set of numbers for the following week. (e.g. Week 2). [[ Note: we recommend generating the new set of numbers a day or two before the next game to allow Users/Players to see who won the week prior. ]]
