This summer, we are combining our passion for soccer and equality with the 2023 Women’s World Cup. We’re launching the Women’s World Cup Bracket Challenge in partnership with Oakland Soul Sports Club to raise money for our girls’ programs. 

Oakland Genesis is fully committed to breaking down the barriers for women and girls in sports, and to making #equalplay a reality.

When you donate YOU are directly supporting our ability to provide more programming for Oakland girls from under-resourced communities.

COMPETITION SCORING

168 TOTAL POINTS POSSIBLE

Group Stage Matches - 32 points possible

  • Pick which countries will finish in 1st and 2nd place in each group.

  • 1 point for each country that you pick that gets out of the group

  • 1 additional point if you predict their position correctly (1st or 2nd place)

    Make sure you fill out the bracket correctly—your pick for the Winner of Group A should go on Line 1A. The 2nd Place/Runner-Up Country from Group A should go on Line 2A, etc.

Round of 16 Matches - 32 points possible

  • 4 points for each Round of 16 winner that you pick

Quarterfinal Matches - 32 points possible

  • 8 points for each Quarterfinal winner that you pick

Semifinal Matches - 32 points possible

3rd Place Match - 8 points possible

Final Match - 32 points possible

Tiebreaker

If two players have the same points total, the player with the highest number of points earned in the Final round wins. If both players selected the same Finals champion, then the players with the most points earned in Semifinal Round. If two players earn the same points totals from the Final and Semi-final rounds, then the player with the highest points earned in the Quarterfinal Round wins. This process continues to the Round of 16, and then the Group Stages if necessary.
