How to Create an Entertainment-Only NCAAB Survivor Contest

An Entertainment-Only NCAAB Survivor Contest is a self-managed contest where you run the contest independently. This means you are responsible for collecting entry fees and distributing payouts outside of the Splash Sports platform.

Step 1: Log In to Your Splash Sports Account

Start by signing in to your Splash Sports account.

Once logged in, navigate to the Create A Contest tab to begin the setup process.


Step 2: Select the NCAAB Survivor Format

Within the contest creation flow:

  1. Navigate to the NCAAB category

  2. Select NCAAB Survivor Contest from the available formats

This will open the Survivor contest setup options.


Step 3: Choose Entertainment-Only (Self-Managed)

To create an Entertainment-Only contest:

  • Go to the Entry Fee section

  • Select "I'll collect entries and handle payouts on my own"

Choosing this option ensures your contest is set up as self-managed, meaning Splash Sports does not collect entry fees, does not handle payouts, and all payments and prize distribution are managed by you.


What "Entertainment-Only" Means

Entertainment-Only contests are ideal for private groups, office contests, or friend leagues that prefer to handle money separately. You control entry collection, manage payouts directly, and the platform provides scoring, picks, and standings only.


Once you complete these steps and finalize your settings, your Entertainment-Only NCAAB Survivor Contest will be ready to share with participants.

If you're unsure whether a self-managed or platform-managed contest is right for you, our support team is happy to help.
