Free pools

Official Rules

These rules apply to every free, no-entry-fee pool run by Moving Day or a sponsor. Last updated August 25, 2026. See the current free pools.

1. Sponsor

Free pools listed on Moving Day are run by Moving Day ("we", "us") or by a named sponsor shown on the pool. Where a sponsor provides the prize, the sponsor is identified on the pool's page and these rules apply unless that pool states its own.

2. No purchase necessary

There is no entry fee and no purchase of any kind is required to enter or win a free pool. Purchasing a Pro subscription, Caddie Tips, or anything else from us does not improve your chances of winning.

3. Eligibility

Free pools are open to legal residents of the United States who are at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where they live) at the time of entry and hold a Moving Day account in good standing. Void where prohibited or restricted by law.

Employees and contractors of Moving Day, a pool's sponsor, and members of their immediate households are not eligible to win prizes in that pool.

4. How to enter

Create a free Moving Day account, join the pool from its page, and register a team with your golfer picks before the pool's entry deadline. One entry per person per pool unless the pool says otherwise. Entries after the deadline, or teams left incomplete at the deadline, are not eligible.

5. How winners are determined

Standings are determined by the accumulated real-world performance of the golfers on each team across the tournament(s) in the pool, scored under the pool's published rules and format. This is a contest of skill: results reflect participants' relative knowledge and judgment in selecting golfers, and no winner is determined by chance or by the performance of any single golfer in any single event.

The team ranked first when the pool completes wins the prize. Equal team totals are broken by count-back on each team's own golfers (best golfer, then next best, and so on); two identical lineups are separated by earliest entry, so a pool always has exactly one first-place team. In a season-long pool, equal point totals are separated by earliest entry.

Odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries and the participants' skill.

6. Prizes

The prize for each free pool is described on that pool's page, together with its approximate retail value. Prizes are awarded as described; no cash substitution unless we choose to offer one, and prizes are not transferable. Where a prize is a Pro subscription or other service, it is applied to the winner's account.

We will contact the winner using the email on their account within 14 days of the pool completing. A winner who does not respond within 14 days of that notice, is found ineligible, or declines the prize forfeits it, and we may award it to the next-ranked eligible entrant.

Any taxes on a prize are the winner's responsibility. For prizes valued at or above the IRS reporting threshold we may require a completed tax form before delivery.

7. Conduct

Team names and display names must follow our Terms of Service. We may disqualify any entry that violates the Terms, that we reasonably believe was made fraudulently or through multiple accounts, or that interferes with the pool. Our decisions on scoring and eligibility are final.

8. Privacy and publicity

Information you provide is handled under our Privacy Policy. By accepting a prize you agree we may display your display name and team name as the winner on the pool's page and in Moving Day announcements, without further compensation, except where prohibited by law.

9. General

We may cancel, suspend, or modify a free pool if it cannot run as planned for reasons beyond our reasonable control, including the underlying tournament being cancelled or suspended; in that case we may award the prize based on standings at the time of suspension or not at all, at our reasonable discretion.

These rules are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Nothing here creates any obligation to run future free pools.
