A commissioner creates a pool, picks a format, and invites people. Each member submits picks before the pool locks. HeadPro scores those picks against real game results and keeps the standings.
Straight-up picks the winner of each game. Against-the-spread picks the winner after the point spread. Confidence lets you rank your picks by how sure you are. Survivor asks for one team a week, and you are out when that team loses. Bracket asks you to pick a whole playoff bracket in advance. Which formats you can choose depends on whether the pool runs the regular season or the playoffs.
Your commissioner chooses whether each pick locks at its own kickoff or all picks lock at the first kickoff of the week. Once a pick locks it cannot be changed, and other members can see it.
Where two entries finish level, they share the position.
The commissioner sets the format and the deadlines. Those are the group’s decisions, not HeadPro’s. HeadPro applies the rules the commissioner chose.
HeadPro is free to use and does not sell entries. Any money arrangement in a pool is made and settled directly between the members of that pool. HeadPro does not hold, transfer, or process it, and takes no cut.
Apple is not a sponsor of any pool run in HeadPro and is not involved in any pool in any way.
