Winners will be as detailed on the Fantasy Punter leaderboard. Prizes will be awarded on the basis that the winning individuals have an active 888sport account.

In the case of disqualification, the prize will be awarded to the next individual with an active 888sport account below the disqualified individual.

We will make all reasonable efforts to notify the winner, but if winners have not been contactable 5 days after the conclusion of the competition, they will forfeit their prize.
