The mission · Pre-Picks™ inside

Why we exist.

Sports got too dangerous to enjoy the way most of us grew up enjoying them. We're rebuilding the experience — free, sponsor-funded, built for fans who want the game back.

  1. 01

    Free should mean free.

    No entry fees. No premium tiers. No wagers. The game is the product — not your bank account. The only thing we ever ask you to spend is your attention on game day.

  2. 02

    Sponsors fund prizes. Not gamblers.

    Brands put up the prize pool in exchange for access to the most passionate audience in sports. No tilted economy, no withdrawal flow, no upsell. Championship tickets, VIP experiences, gear players actually want.

  3. 03

    Public benefit, on paper.

    We're a Delaware Public Benefit Corporation. Our charter mandates fan wellbeing alongside returns. The mission isn't a marketing line — it's the legal filing.

  4. 04

    Built for every sport that matters.

    Football, baseball, softball, volleyball, golf, F1, racing — nine sports live, more coming. Wherever fans are, we're meeting them with a place to compete that isn't a sportsbook.

  5. 05

    Pre-Picks™ — proprietary, patent pending.

    Our season-long Pre-Picks™ format — lock your bracket, your conference champions, your champion before kickoff — is a Pick 'Em Technologies trademark. Patent pending · U.S. App. No. 63/633,875. It's the differentiator the rest of the category doesn't have.

The founding

Why this exists.

Sports should be about passion, not risk. I've lived the dangers of gambling, and I've seen how it steals the joy from the game. That's why we built Pick 'Em Sports — to bring the focus back to the competition, the rivalries, and the love of the game itself.

Paul Ashmore, Co-founder & CEO

Pick 'Em Sports was founded by Paul Ashmore and Bryan Stone — college classmates who watched sports betting reshape the way their friends engaged with the games they loved, and decided they wanted no part of where it was heading.

For Paul, it was personal. The platforms designed to be addictive were stealing the thing he loved most. So they built somewhere safe to come back to.

Today Pick 'Em Sports is a Delaware Public Benefit Corporation, formally chartered to protect sports integrity and fan wellbeing.
