2025 Christmas Football Party Ideas

Celebrate Christmas with a football pool to bring excitement and lighthearted chatter to your holiday gathering. Below are some ideas.

#1 - NFL Football Bingo

Play football bingo where everyone tries to get 5 in a row on their card based on events that happen in the football game. Use our automatic scoring to mark your cards.

#2 - Football Squares

Pick your squares in the 10x10 grid. If your random number matches the score at the end of the quarter, you win! Setup squares online for free.

#3 - Draft/Assign Players To Score a Touchdown

Have a snake draft or randomly assign players to people at your party. You win if your player scores a touchdown on Christmas. The player that scores is determined by whoever carries or receives the ball in the endzone. Quarterbacks must rush in a touchdown - they don't get credit for passing. Decide the prize for each TD prior to the game.

#4 - Week 17 Fantasy Football

Everyone picks 10 NFL players from an online tiered picksheet, no draft, no position restrictions. You get points based on how your players perform in Week 17 ONLY! Whoever has the most points at the end of the week wins.
