The selected edition has its own draft, schedule, and player results.
01 / SET THE DATE
Puzzles release at midnight Eastern. Save drafts anytime; published games stay hidden until their date.
02 / THE MYSTERY
Open with a specific stat or distinctive career fact that gives fans a real chance on clue one. Add context with each clue, ending with a signature team, nickname, or achievement. Verify the season and numbers before publishing. The sport stays hidden until a clue names it.
03 / THE CLIMB
Order these from easy to hard. Specify regular season vs. playoffs, the exact year or season, and the statistic. Include tied leaders as accepted answers when needed.
04 / THE CROSS
Rows and columns start at 1 in this editor. Spaces and punctuation are removed from grid answers. All words must connect, and adjoining letters must form a clued word. Black squares fill automatically.
05 / THE MATCHUP
Optional on existing three-game dates. New General slates include this game by default.
06 / THE WORD GAME
Optional. Choose a word and length for each date you include Sportle.
07 / THE FINAL WHISTLE
Always last in the lineup. Signed-in players can enter one ranked run with a public nickname; guests can play without ranking.
CREATOR CREDITS
Only these approved names appear publicly. You can correct a name after publication; answers and clues stay locked. Linked submissions retain their private original name.
