These dates may be subject to change; all such updates will be noted in the Official Rules.

• Create a virtual team with a goalkeeper, defender, and striker, and train them.
• Earn skill points for your team members through training by answering math questions.
• Redistribute those points between your three players to create the perfect combination.
• Play matches, and increase your rating on the leaderboard to become the winner.
• The ranking system is Elo-inspired, meaning that wins, losses, ties and the opponent’s ranking are used to calculate player rankings. 
• A player’s rank changes according to their team’s wins or losses, which can be tracked in the dashboard’s ‘Leaderboard Ranking’ area. 
• A player starts with 1500 points. The one whose team gains the most points in the leaderboard will be given the first-place title.
• Suppose there is a tie for first, second, or third place. In that case, the decision on who gets the relevant prize will be made by a panel of eight (8) judges who will select the overall winner based on the following criteria of 30% completion and 70% accuracy.

Apart from this, the top three winners of each season stand to win cash prizes, details of which can be found in the Official Rules section!
