All About Football on Yahoo

Play Fantasy Football With Friends Online


If you haven't thought about your fantasy teams for the year ahead yet, or are looking for a new challenge, I've updated our Fantasy Football picks for 2010-11.

Official Fantasy Football

Fantasy Premier League - Official Site: League Code: 638-335
Based on the old Can You Kick It premise of building a squad of fifteen players within a limited budget and watching the player values rise and fall, depending on the points scoring in recent games and the trading inclinations of other fantasy managers.

Head to Head League: 638-213116

Texaco Fantasy Football:
If you like doing your research for the following year's Premier League hopefuls, there's always the fantasy game for Championship matches.

UEFA Champions League:
Same format as the Fantasy Premier League game and a great way to keep on top of the best in European Football.

UEFA Europa League Fantasy:
Another great fantasy football game organised by UEFA, for die hard fans of European Football.

Prediction Games

FIFA World Leagues Predictor:
Predict results from leagues around the world on FIFA.

I Know The Score:
The English Premier League's official prediction game.

Weekend Football: (Free to enter: 1st Prize £5,000)
Tipping game where you are given an imaginary £10 bet to place on the outcome of any three matches (home, away or draw) that weekend. Your winnings go into an imaginary bank and there's cash prizes for managers with highest bank each month; as well as a £5,000 prize to the winner at the end of the season.

Join the 1800-WorldCup.com League when you register!

Other places to play fantasy football online - for free.

Facebook Fantasy Football:
A Citizen Sports application in association with Yahoo. Create your own club and draft your squad with a maximum of £150m to spend on 15 players.
 
Mail Online Fantasy Football:
Manage a 12-man squad and try to get your hands on the £20,000 prize for finishing first.

Metro Fantasy: Metro League - Pin: 8003056 - Chance to win £1,000 in mini-league.
Residents of the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, Isle of Man and the Republic of Ireland can register a team of fifteen players for the chance to win a cool £15,000. The game is free to enter.

Sky Sports Fantasy Football:
As well as going for a massive first prize of £25,000 you can win great cash prizes all season round with £3,000 for each monthly winner and £1,500 for each weekly winner! All this and it’s still free to play.

Soccernet - Premier Fantasy:
The values of players fluctuate as the season goes on, based on supply and demand. Picking up a bargain at the start and selling for a profit later increases your overall budget.

Yahoo Fantasy:
The Yahoo points scoring system might seem complicated; with points for blocked shots, last ditch tackles and intercepted passes, unless it's your players putting the stick about.

Pay to Play

11 Kicks:
Although there is a free version available it appears that the idea here is to get the money rolling in, through the pay to win option; especially as a number of football websites are using a branded version of this game.

Classic Fantasy League: Pin: 5534 Password: rivals
Fantasy League Limited started back in 1991. Entering a team now costs from £10 for a chance to win the £10,000 first prize.

Dream Team:
The Sun's £1 million Dream Team fantasy football game, with a massive cash prize of £500,000 to the overall winner. £10 to enter with transfers, or £5 for a pick and stick.

Telegraph Fantasy Football:
For an entry fee of £6 per team or £10 for three teams, you can try to win the £50,000 first prize or just see how you do against Alan Hansen in the Telegraph Writers League.

Fantasy Blogs and Tips - Writing About Fantasy Football

This is by no means a listing of all the blogs covering fantasy football but a small indication of some of the better ones being written and updated.

Fantasy EPL:
Where Jeremy Spitzberg and Neal Thurman continue to sound off about the world of Fantasy Football according to Yahoo and encourage you to Beat the Bloggers.

Fantasy Football Assistance:
Although based on the official premier league version of the game, in terms of prices and scoring, most of the fantasy football advice is generic.

Mark, Akers, Andy, Granville, Greek Fan and Sir Paulos post their take on the latest football news and their views on how it could affect your fantasy football team; relevant to the game on the official Premier League site.

Can Robin Seekatz succeed where others have failed? This new blog started with a 20 Teams in 20 Days series; as a preview to the 2010-2011 English Premier League season.

Never Captain Nicky Butt:
As they like to say: 'The (Real) Fantasy Premier League Pundit(s)'.

Some of the weekly musings make interesting reading but it's more fun outscoring the Premier League's resident pundit.

Yahoo Fantasy Blog:
The Fantasist tries to get you in the right frame of mind for playing the Yahoo Eurosport game.
