Using Fantasy Soccer for Employer Branding

December 13, 2025

What Is Fantasy Soccer in This Context?

On GetFantasySoccer, Fantasy Soccer (is Prediction Game in English).

You do not pick players.
You predict match results.

For each match, people guess:

• Who will win or if it is a draw

• The score or score range

• Simple bonus events (for example, first team to score)

The system gives points for good predictions.
A live table shows who leads.

So when we say “fantasy football” here, we mean:

A simple, online match prediction game, not a player selection game.

This format is ideal for HR and employer branding.
It is easy, fair, and safe for people who do not know every player.

Why Fantasy Soccer Works for Employer Branding

Strong employer branding shows:

• What you stand for

• How you treat people

• Why great talent should join and stay

Fantasy Soccer helps HR & Branding teams show this in daily life.

1. It Makes Your Culture Visible

You can link the game to your values.

• Value “teamwork”? Use team-based leagues.

• Value “learning”? Share match facts and short stories.

• Value “fun at work”? Run light, weekly rituals around big matches.

People do not just read your values on a poster.
They feel them while they play.

2. It Boosts Engagement

People in many countries follow football.
European leagues and global tournaments draw big interest.

A match prediction game:

• Gives staff a shared topic

• Fits hybrid and remote teams

• Creates friendly “water cooler” talk online

Engaged staff show more energy and performance.
Research links engagement to better business results.
For example, Gallup finds that engaged teams show higher productivity and less turnover.

Fantasy Soccer turns that idea into a weekly habit.

3. It Supports Modern HR & Branding

HR and branding teams often work on the same goals:

• Attract talent

• Keep talent

• Build a clear story about work life

Fantasy Soccer fits this “HR & Branding” bridge:

• HR runs the game as a people project

• Branding uses it as proof of culture

• Internal comms share stories and results

Your employer brand stops being only a slide deck.
It becomes a living, shared activity.

Use Cases for Companies and Clubs

For Corporates

Use Fantasy Soccer to:

• Welcome new hires with an easy, fun first touch

• Connect offices across Europe and beyond

• Support well-being weeks with light, social fun

• Add sparkle to peak seasons, like a major tournament

You can link prizes to your brand:

• Branded shirts or scarves

• Lunch with leaders

• Time off vouchers

These rewards show that the company cares.

For Sports Clubs and Federations

If you manage a club or league, you can:

• Run a fan prediction league for staff and partners

• Involve volunteers and matchday crews

• Offer B2B partners their own branded mini-leagues

You build employer branding and partner loyalty at once.

How to Design a Fantasy Soccer Employer Branding Campaign

1. Start With HR & Branding Goals

Decide what you want:

• More engagement in remote teams?

• Higher pride in the brand?

• Stronger links between offices or functions?

Write one clear goal.
Keep it simple.

2. Pick the Right Theme

Use European competitions or a local league.
Make the theme fit your brand story:

• A “Global Cup” for an international company

• A “Derby Week” theme if your main office is in a football city

• A “Data & Goals” theme if your brand loves numbers

3. Make It Easy to Join

Remove friction:

• Simple sign-up

• Clear rules in plain language

• Short weekly tasks (predict a set of matches in minutes)

Anyone should feel able to take part.
Even people who do not follow football closely.

4. Communicate Like a Campaign

Treat the game as a real HR & Branding campaign:

• Launch: teaser mails, intranet posts, short videos

• During: weekly tables, fun facts, staff spotlights

• Finale: awards, thank-you notes, highlight stories

Use European spellings, clear dates, and metric units in any copy.
This helps if you run the game across European teams.

5. Celebrate Stories, Not Just Winners

Share human stories:

• The intern who beats the senior manager

• The finance team that forms a surprise top group

• The quiet engineer who wins a round

These stories show your culture in action.
They are also great content for your careers site and social channels.

Measuring Impact on Employer Branding

Link the game to simple metrics:

• Sign-up rate by office or team

• Weekly active users

• Short pulse surveys on mood and connection

• Mentions on internal social tools

Ask three short questions after the season:

1. Did this game make you feel more connected to colleagues?
2. Did this game change how you see our company culture?
3. Would you join again?

Share the results with staff.
Show that you act on feedback.
