No Pick Against The Teams Option

Why there's currently no setting to block picks against specific teams on Splash Sports, and what workarounds are available for self-managed contests.

Updated over a week ago

Currently, there is no setting on Splash Sports that allows commissioners to prevent members from picking against a specific team (sometimes called a "no-pick-against" rule). All participants can make selections against any team each week.


Workarounds for Self-Managed Contests

If you want to enforce a house rule like this, the best approach in a self-managed contest is:

  • Add the rule to your contest description so all participants are aware (Commissioner tab β†’ Manage β†’ Contest Settings β†’ Description)

  • Monitor picks via the Entrants Manager and manually adjust standings if a rule is violated

In Splash-managed (real-money) contests, manually adjusting standings is not supported and rules outside the platform cannot be enforced.


Product Roadmap

This request has been shared with our product team for consideration in future seasons. If a "no-pick-against" setting is added, it will be noted in release updates.
