01
Create your pool
Choose Last Man Standing or Score Predictor, name it, and pick the competition. It's a short form on your phone — about a minute.
WHAT YOU GET
You get one shareable join link at the end.
How it works
Set up once. Then it runs itself.
Matchroom turns a group chat into a proper football pool. You create it and share a link — picks, deadlines, results and standings all happen on their own. Here’s the whole loop.
02
Share one link
Drop the link into your group chat. Anyone who taps it can join in the browser and make their first pick — no app to install. A quick free sign-in keeps each person's picks saved to them.
WHAT YOU GET
Friends land straight on the picks screen.
03
Pick, and let it run
Everyone picks before the deadline. Matchroom locks the whole round at its first eligible kickoff, pulls results in automatically, and posts the new standings after every round.
WHAT YOU GET
Nothing to update by hand — ever.
Two ways to play
Pick the game that suits your group.
LMS
Last Man Standing
- HOW IT PLAYS
- Pick one team to win each round. A losing pick, a draw where a win was required, or a missed round costs one life. Reach zero lives and you go to the bench.
- THE CATCH
- Normally, use every available team once before beginning a new cycle. Matchroom tracks your available choices.
- HOW YOU WIN
- Outlast the group and the season. The Proving Ground and wipeouts keep the game alive until the final round.
Predictor
Score Predictor
- HOW IT PLAYS
- Predict the exact score of every game. An exact score scores 3 points; getting just the result right scores 1.
- THE CATCH
- The whole round locks at the first eligible kickoff. You can create or change any prediction until that exact time.
- HOW YOU WIN
- Highest points total across the run wins.
