Product Name:
National Fantasy Baseball Championship

Company Name:
STATS LLC

Product Description:
The National Fantasy Baseball Championship is the industry’s premiere pay-to-play fantasy contest with entry levels ranging from $125 per team to $20,000 per team. The NFBC offers live draft events in Las Vegas, New York City and Chicago, along with Online drafts. During its 12th season, the NFBC has awarded more than $15 million in prizes, including over $2.8 million in 2015.

What Makes This Product Worthy of Winning This Category?
A combination of high stakes and high competition make this a compelling candidate for Best Fantasy Sports Content (Season Long).  People play in the NFBC because of its strong payouts but also for the tough competition. The 15-team format with 30 rounds and only 7 reserve spots is very difficult. An owner has to draft well, manage his weekly lineup well and be strong in free agency during all 26 weeks of the regular season to win his league. The Holy Grail in the fantasy baseball industry is the NFBC Main Event prize, which awards a grand prize of $125,000. There are many contests in the industry, but none test the season-long skills of players more than the NFBC. And it’s that tough competition and camaraderie among players that makes people come back year after year.
