DraftKings And The Arena Football League Launch New Fantasy Sports Game
2 minutos de lectura
(Boston).- DraftKings and the Arena Football League (AFL) have partnered to launch a new daily fantasy sports game ahead of the AFL's 2019 season. Customers can now submit contest entries and get even closer to the fast-paced action on the turf that begins April 26th. This AFL offering is the 12th daily fantasy sports category for DraftKings, making the company the leader in available sports among fantasy operators.
"The fast-paced games of the AFL and zeal of its fans will enable a new customer base that loves sports just as much as we do to interact with our products," said Greg Karamitis, SVP of Fantasy Sports at DraftKings. "The AFL is, and will continue to be, excellent partners in enhancing the entertainment experience for these dedicated fans every weekend for the 2019 season."
With the AFL expanding its presence from four to six teams in 2019, DraftKings' data capabilities will source game and player information at every moment of play for fans to leverage in their daily fantasy selections. Customers can enjoy special DraftKings Classic and Showdown modes for AFL contests, constructing lineups of six players while staying within a $50,000 salary cap range and designating a "captain" slot that grants one player a bonus multiplier. Classic contests will require selecting players from more than one game, while Showdown contests must include players from each team.
"We are very excited to be working with DraftKings and know our fans will love playing the fantasy football games DraftKings developed for the AFL," said Randall Boe, AFL Commissioner. "We want the AFL to be the most innovative league in sports and working with leaders and pioneers like DraftKings is a great fit."
As football represents the most popular sport on DraftKings, this expansion into Arena Football League daily fantasy contests helps further diversify offerings and address customer demand. Additionally, the DraftKings Sportsbook will offer fans the opportunity to wager on games throughout the AFL season. To engage with the new product, players can either head to www.draftkings.com or download the DraftKings app via iOS and Android.
