If you're creating or joining a Men’s or Women’s March Madness contest, picks and brackets will not be available until after Selection Sunday, once the official tournament field and matchups/teams are announced.
📅 Selection Sunday Dates & Times
The NCAA tournament teams and bracket matchups will be revealed on:
Men’s Selection Show — March 15th at 6:00 PM ET
Women’s Selection Show — March 15th at 8:00 PM ET
Until the teams and official bracket are announced, members will not be able to:
Make Survivor picks (Pick by Day or Pick by Round)
Fill out Brackets
Submit Pick’em selections
This applies to both Splash-Managed and Entertainment-Only (EO) contests.
✅ Can I Create My Contest Before Then?
Yes! Commissioners can create or restart their NCAAB contests before Selection Sunday.
However, picks and bracket submissions will only become available once the official tournament field and matchups are released.
As soon as the bracket is published, pick options will automatically appear within your contest.
💡 Pro Tip
We recommend setting up your contest early so everything is ready to go once the teams are announced. This allows members to begin making their selections right away after the Selection Shows conclude.
If you have questions about your specific contest format, feel free to contact support.
