An Entertainment-Only NCAAB Women's Bracket Contest is a self-managed contest where you run the competition independently. This format is perfect for office contests, friend groups, or private leagues that prefer to handle payments outside of the platform.
Step 1: Log In to Your Splash Sports Account
Sign 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 Women's Bracket Format
Within the contest creation flow:
Navigate to the NCAAB category
Select NCAAB Women's Bracket from the available formats
This will open the bracket contest setup page.
Things to keep in mind:
The NCAAB Women's Bracket format is offered only as a self-managed contest. This means Splash Sports does not collect entry fees or distribute payouts -- you are responsible for handling all payments outside the platform. No additional selection is required as the format is automatically configured as Entertainment-Only.
What "Entertainment-Only" Means
Entertainment-Only contests provide the tools to run your contest while leaving financial management in your hands.
With this setup:
You collect entry fees directly from participants
You distribute prizes yourself
Splash Sports manages brackets, scoring, standings, and updates
Once you complete the setup and publish your contest, you can invite participants to join and submit their brackets.
If you're unsure whether a self-managed or platform-managed contest is right for your group, our support team is happy to help.
