About Pick 'Em Network
Your picks. Your people. Your game. Always free.
Build the most enjoyable, family-friendly sports prediction platform — somewhere fans can test their knowledge and compete with friends without the risks of gambling.
The story
Pick 'Em Network was born from a simple observation — millions of fans love making predictions about games, but not everyone wants to gamble real money.
As a platform engineer diving into web development for the first time, I wanted to build something meaningful — a place where families, friends, and coworkers could enjoy the excitement of sports predictions without any financial risk.
After plenty of late nights, debugging sessions, and "just one more feature" moments, Pick 'Em Network came to life. It's a community platform built with passion for both technology and sports.
"Sports analytics and odds-making is fun enough without your money on the line. There's a middle ground to be had."
— Founder, Pick 'Em Network
What makes us different

No money on the line, ever. A few quiet ads keep the lights on.
Fine for the whole family
Thirteen and up. With nothing on the line, a league with your kids is just a league.
Bragging rights only
Earned on the board, by what you know about the game. Nothing else counts.
Live from kickoff
Real lines, picks graded the minute the final goes up, standings that move while you watch.
Core values
Every pick in a league is against the same numbers, posted at the same time.
Built for the group that already argues about the game. We just keep score.
No money, so the only thing anyone can lose is the argument.
What ships next is what the people playing ask for.
