Grand National sweepstake.
A Grand National sweepstake is a forty-year office tradition — and SweepSquad is the modern way to run one. Each person draws a horse at random; whoever pulled the winner takes the pot. We do the draw, you collect the entries, the race does the rest.
- Dates

You keep the pot. SweepSquad never handles entry money.
Built for Grand National
What makes a Grand National sweepstake actually work.
Up to 34 horses drawn fairly
Random allocation across the final declared field. Spares handled automatically.
Print or share digitally
Pin it to the kitchen wall or drop the link in the team chat — both look great.
Winner revealed at the line
We update the result the moment it's official, so the pot has an obvious home.
How it works
From group chat to crowned winner in three steps.
Create the sweepstake
Pick a tournament, set entry, invite your colleagues with a single link. Two minutes, no spreadsheet.
Allocate teams fairly
Seed-banded random draw means nobody hoards the favourites. Everyone sees the result land in real time.
Watch it play out
Live leaderboard, group tables, automatic knockout eliminations and a winner email when it's done.
Live throughout the tournament
A live leaderboard your team will actually check.
Group tables, knockout brackets and standings update minutes after the final whistle. The dashboard everyone refreshes on Monday morning — and again at lunch.
- Group tables refresh automatically from official fixtures.
- Knockout losers are eliminated and notified by email.
- The dashboard and the still-in list always agree.
