# Leagues

Once you have created your Kickest team, it is automatically enrolled in **two leagues**:

* **General League:**\
  This ranks teams based on the total points accumulated across all 38 Matchdays.
* **Favorite Team League:**\
  This gathers all teams that have selected the same favorite club.

***

Additionally, you can enter your Kickest team into:

* **Public Leagues:**\
  Open to everyone, visible and accessible without an invitation.
* **Private Leagues:**\
  Accessible only via a join code, designed for small groups or challenges among friends.

***

In Private Leagues, you can choose between **two game modes**:

* **All vs All:**\
  The ranking is based on the total points accumulated during the Matchdays.
* **Head-to-Head:**\
  Each Matchday features 1-on-1 matchups between participating teams. Matches end with a win (3 points), draw (1 point), or loss (0 points). The total score of each team is converted into goals according to a tiered system.

<br>

| Points Bracket            | Number of Goals |
| ------------------------- | --------------- |
| Less than 140 points      | 0 goal          |
| From 140 to 159.99 points | 1 goal          |
| From 160 to 179.99 points | 2 goal          |
| From 180 to 199.99 points | 3 goal          |

*And so on, with each bracket increasing by 20 points.*

***Even in the head-to-head mode, squads are not exclusive — multiple teams can have the same players.***
{% endhint %}

**Other useful information:**

Maximum number of participants: **20 teams**.

If the number of participants is odd, a **“Kickest Team”** is automatically created. Each Matchday, this team will receive a score equal to the **average points of all teams registered on Kickest** for that round.

In case of a tie, the winner is determined by the following criteria, in order:

1. The team with the **most Kickest points (fpt)**
2. The team that **registered earlier on Kickest**.

***Goal Brackets Revision: They can be revised by the organization at any time during the season.***
