DRAFTNIGHT Fantasy Football Draft Help
Welcome to the DRAFTNIGHT Knowledge Base — everything you need to set up, host, and broadcast a live fantasy football draft.
What is DRAFTNIGHT?
DRAFTNIGHT turns a fantasy football draft into a shared, live event. A commissioner prepares the league from the dashboard, team owners make picks from their phones, and everyone watches the results land on a synchronized TV broadcast with a draft board, pick timer, and reactions.
These docs cover the complete draft-night workflow: creating an account, configuring the league, hosting and joining a room, running the live draft, and wrapping up afterward.
