What is a Head-To-Head Fantasy Football League?
There are two main contest types in fantasy NFL leagues, Head-2-Head contests, and Tournament Salary Cap. With Head-2-Head matchups, users get to draft their team and compete over a 7-day period. Competitions are bracket-style and rosters are selected through a Snake Draft. This means the order of who picks/drafts is reversed each round. For example, Round 1 will have the draft order as User 1, User 2, User 3, User 4. And Round 2 will have the draft order as User 4, User 3, User 2, User 1.
The matchup types include:
2 Team
(1-week duration)
Two people compete over the course of 7 days, with the winner taking the prize pool.
4 Team
(2-week duration)
Four people compete in a Head-2-Head bracket-style contest, each for 7 days. The two winners move to the next round and play the following week.
8 Team
(3-week duration)
Eight people compete over a 7 day period. The winners move on to the next round and play each other, until the completion of the contest. In total, eight team contests take three weeks from start to finish.
16 Team
(4-week duration)
Sixteen people compete over the course of 7 days. The winners move on to the next round and play each other until the completion of the contest.

What is a Tournament Contest?
A Tournament contest with OwnersBox enables users to compete over 7-days and enter multiple entries. When you sign up for a Tournament contest, the first step is choosing your 9 players from the player list within the $50,000 salary cap. Any swaps need to be completed prior to the start of the scheduled game.

How Does Fantasy Football Scoring Work?
For Tournament:
Your total fantasy points are an accumulation of your player’s fantasy points from the games they played. If there is a tie, the total prizes are split between the two winners.
For Head-2-Head:
Your total fantasy points are an accumulation of your player’s fantasy points from the games they played. A randomizer is used at the end of each draft to determine who you will be matched up against at the first round – it will also assign a gold coin to represent who wins in the event of a tie.
Your roster accumulates points based on the below stat lines.

How To Manage Your Fantasy Football Team on OwnersBox
How To Win Weekly Fantasy Football
- Don’t pick players from your favorite team. Even if it’s tempting to represent your go-to team, fantasy football is about selecting the best players in the field per position.
- Do your research. Spend time familiarizing yourself with the season’s players (including the pre-season).
- Know the rules of the contests. Tournament-style contests and Head-2-Head contests are different in some significant ways (including the salary caps), so it’s always a good idea to familiarize yourself with the rules.
- Add players to your queue. It’s easy to forget this, but adding players to your queue can make a big difference on your roster in the long run for Head-2-Head contests.
