Important Information

  • There is guaranteed to be 35 prize cards offered to 30 unique coaches for the 2026 season.

  • The Fez Rule: Coachers will have a maximum of 1 prize card selection across all competitions. In the event of multiple placings from a single coach, they will be awarded the highest pick they have in the draft. All coaches will then move up 1 place in the draft. The next highest ranked coach from either the Champion, challenger or classic competitions (in the order of 11th champion, 11th challenger, 11th classic, 12 champion.. ect) will then move into the draft to ensure 35 prize card selections are made.

  • Coaches who forfeit a prize card selection due to the 1 card limit will receive an additional 10 Player Elite Pack for every forfeited Prize Card.
