02
Draft your 7

Pick seven players across the seven competing nations. Max 3 per country to keep things spicy.

03
Watch it play out

Every match your countries win adds points to each of your picks from that nation. You can update your roster from day to day to react to the schedule.

Scoring

Every euro your players earn on the court adds to your team total. Since Tchoukball is all about team spirit, a player's earnings are determined by their national team's collective effort - not individual performance. Here's exactly how the money flows.

01

Win / Draw / Loss

Every final match hands out result money to both nations on court:

Win
€100
Draw
€50
Loss
€0
02

Points for & against

Points for: Every point the nation scores is worth €1.

Points against: Starting with a 100, then subtracts the points conceded. The number can go negative on a bad night.

Ranking bonus

The seven nations at the Men's Euro 2026 are ranked from favourite to underdog based on the team's performance at the last Euro's in 2024. Everything you earn from steps 1 & 2 is multiplied by the picked nation's rank — the worse the odds, the higher the reward.

Any team with Tobias Johansen collects a flat €50 / day for every day he stays on the team. It's only fair. After all, he made Tchoukman.

Strategy

A few things worth keeping in mind as you build — and rebuild — your squad.

01
It's a team game

Points come from the collective effort of each nation, not individual stats. Pick your favourite players from your favourite teams — just like real tchoukball, it's the team that carries you.

02
Chase the underdogs

The ranking bonus means stacking the top-ranked nations isn't the winning move. Look for teams you think will outperform their ranking — good performances multiplied by a high bonus is where the big euros come from.

03
Rebuild every night

Change your team every evening based on tomorrow's fixtures and try to predict the upsets. A win for Italy pays €100, but if Great Britain beats a weak opponent, their 1.8× bonus turns that same win into €180.
