It’s the 2nd year of the Canadian Premier League, and we’re all set to run our score prediction game once again.

Subscription

We’ll be running two (2) pools this year. Both will follow the same basic rules.

Free Pool If you already have an account, you can join the new league by logging in and changing it in your settings! Login Here If you’re new, just create a login name & use your e-mail address. Expect a password reset e-mail within 48-hours of creating your account. Be sure to check your spam folder. Automated sign-up e-mails often go there. If you haven’t received a password reset e-mail within 48-hours, please contact us. Create an account Paid Pool For the paid pool, you’ll need to login or create a new account, just like you would for the free pool, but we’ve one more step. As this is a paid pool, you’ll need to send in your registration fee. Alternately, you can send an e-mail money transfer to editor@northernstartingeleven.com . Include your username so I can add you to the paid pool!

Prediction

Predict the end score of all the matches in the tournaments & competitions. The server time (Eastern) is used. Game times are adjusted to the server time. You have until 15 minutes before the start of a match to add or change your prediction.

Bonus Questions

You can earn extra points during the tournament with the bonus questions. Each question must be answered before a specific date and time.

Each correct answer yields 10 bonus points, with 1 exception.

With answers required the day before the 1st match of the season there is a very important 30 points question:

Who will win the 2020 Canadian Premier League Championship?

It’s an early prediction, before any matches have been played, with the points allotted after everything is complete. It’s enough points that it could cause a last-minute upset, leaving everything open right to the very end.

Scoring

The score at the end of the match (after extra time) is used for the calculation of the scores. Goals in a penalty shoot-out are not taken into consideration.
