The Fantasy Premier League, popularly referred to as FPL by millions of players worldwide, has grown into a massive movement. Today, there are millions of players in the game and I bet we also have a ton of players on Hive.
Next season, we'll be starting the inaugural season of the Hive Fantasy Premier League for anyone that is interested in the game. The idea is still in incubation, but here's what to expect.
Motivation
- To create a community of FPL players that share tips, banter with each other and also earn from their football knowledge. You claim you're the baddest FPL punter, well now you can prove it.
- To grow the Hive sports community, which in turn, adds value to Hive, by attracting FPL players from around the world.
How the league works
- First season will be 100% Classic League
- Subsequent seasons will have both traditional classic league and head to head leagues running concurrently.
- Head to head league will have different tiers, depending on the number of players
- The number of players at the end of the first season will determine the number of tiers
- Your position in the classic league will determine which head to head tier you fall into in the next season.
- At the end of each season after the first, a specific number of players will be relegated or promoted, depending on the number of participants.
- All leagues will be exclusively for players with a Hive account
- Joining the league is absolutely free now but there could be a 0.5-1Hive fee that could be used for paying participants
- All league codes will be published in the discord
Rewards
The idea is still in the incubation phases, so we're still looking for supporters. So far, what I know for sure is that;
- Top 10 in the classic league will be rewarded weekly and then a grand prize at the end of the season.
- Winners of each Head to Head league tier will also be rewarded.
- There will also be wild card rewards and upvotes from the community account
- Rewards will be derived from upvotes and generous donations.
Communication and community
Since this is a sports-related activity, all publications related to the project will be published in Sportstalk Social. Publications related to the Hive Fantasy Premier League will carry the #hivefpl tag to enable us to track publications.
