🆕New to 2024

What to expect for the first tip-off of the 2024/25 Basketball Season!

The team has been hard at work creating more additions and improvements ahead of the new season to make this one the best season yet!

Some of the big gameplay changes for 2024 include:

Updated Player Pool:

In July we will launch the updated 2024 player pool update that will include team changes, position changes, player additions, draftees and the latest removals.

Lockout Timer:

Lockouts will no longer occur 10 minutes before the start of each game. Rolling lockouts in 2024 will continue however will now be out at the commencement of each game giving more time for coaches to get their squads ready before the first bounce. Ability to enter multiple competitions:

Test your skills and expertise across Multiple Competitions simultaneously! GameDay Squad are excited to announce that our coaches will be able to Create, Coach and Compete in ALL available competitions! In simple terms this means that coaches will be able to submit teams for both the Classic and Champion competition if they wish!

But it doesn’t end there! GameDay Squad will be introducing TWO new competitions that coaches will be able to compete in! Namely the STARTER Competitions and the CHALLENGER Competition, users will be able to submit teams for all FOUR active competitions! The Starter Competition will be a bronze only competition and the Challenger Competition will be a salary-capped competition that sits between the existing Classic and Champion Competitions.

Slated For Future Seasons!

GameDay Squad is constantly looking to improve the platform in all facets, while these features won't make the start of the 2024 season, they will continue to be worked on as the season progresses to ensure they become part of the game’s future.

These Include:

Captains, Vice Captains and other Special Bonuses:

Captains and vice-captains seen in other fantasy platforms will not be included at the beginning of the 2024 seasons. It is expected these features will be included in the 2025 version along with exciting new additions that will change the way users participate over a season.

Emergency players:

As the 2024 game does not include a non-scoring bench, emergency players will not be an available feature in 2024. Emergency players will be revisited and reviewed as the season progresses with added player card slots.

Good luck for the 2024/25 season!
