The Pools
pick the draws to score!
Looking for something a little different? The Pools is a '6 from 38' lottery game where the winning numbers are based on results of soccer matches played in Europe, Australia and around the world instead of numbered balls being drawn from a barrel.
The winning numbers are determined by the order of rank applied to the results of the matches. For example, score draw games are ranked highest, nil-score draw games are second highest, then away team and home team wins respectively. The Match List numbers for the six highest ranked matches are the "winning numbers" and the seventh highest ranked match is the "supplementary number".
playing The Pools is easy
Choose 6 from 38 by randomly selecting your numbers or by choosing your numbers from the Match Lists. Winning numbers are determined by the highest scoring drawn soccer matches. There are lots of easy ways to play The Pools and plenty of The Pools play options including QuickPicks, Favourites and System entries.
