Signing in

Use Sign in / Sign up on the Competition page. This uses Black Sheep's existing Shopify customer authentication and returns you to the Femmes Fantasy League page. It does not replace or alter the store-wide Rivo experience.

If you do not receive a login code, check the email address attached to your Black Sheep account, check spam/junk folders, wait briefly and request a fresh code. Never send your login code or password to Competition support.

Who can enter?

Entry is open to people aged 18 or older who ordinarily live in, and are physically located when entering in, Australia; New Zealand; Canada excluding Quebec; England, Scotland or Wales excluding Northern Ireland; Switzerland; Singapore; or one of the 50 United States or District of Columbia. Other visitors may view the Competition page and public leaderboard but cannot enter this release.

See the Eligibility page and Competition Rules for the complete requirements.

How do I build a valid team?

Your team must:

• contain exactly seven published riders;
• cost no more than 100 credits;
• include no more than two riders from one trade team;
• include a predicted final overall winner;
• include a predicted final winning margin from 0 to 7,200 seconds; and
• include all required eligibility, Rules and Privacy confirmations.

Use rider search and role filters to explore the pool. The team sheet shows your rider count, credits used and validation messages.

What do rider statuses mean?

• Provisional: the rider is on a participating team's broader roster but is not confirmed for the race.
• Expected: the rider appears on a credible preliminary list or team announcement.
• Confirmed: the rider appears on the approved final start list.
• Not selected: the rider was excluded during final reconciliation and cannot be selected.
• DNS: the rider was confirmed but did not start.
• Withdrawn/DNF/DSQ/OTL: the rider started but later withdrew, did not finish, was disqualified or finished outside the time limit.

If a provisional or expected rider is removed before entries close, you must choose your own replacement. The game never assigns one automatically. A confirmed rider who becomes a DNS after entries close scores zero.

How do I know my team was saved?

Your team is entered or updated only after the game server shows a successful save confirmation. A browser draft, screenshot, selected riders still visible on screen or a spinning save button is not proof of entry.

If saving fails:

1. keep the page open;
2. read the on-screen validation or service message;
3. confirm all seven riders and required checkboxes are complete;
4. refresh the game to obtain a new secure save token;
5. sign in again if requested; and
6. contact support before the deadline if the problem continues.

Include your team name, device/browser, approximate time and the exact error message. Do not send passwords or login codes.

When do entries lock?

Entries close at 1 August 2026 at 9:40 pm AEST / 1 August 2026 at 1:40 pm CEST / 1 August 2026 at 11:40 am UTC. The server's UTC time decides whether a save is accepted. Teams become read-only after the deadline.

A save confirmed after the deadline is late even if you began editing earlier. Submit and verify your team well before the countdown reaches zero.

Can I use more than one account?

No. Only one entry is allowed per person and per verified Shopify customer account. Multiple-account or false-residence entries may be disqualified.

How does scoring work?

Only official stage finishing positions score in the first release. First place earns 50 points, then 35, 25, 20, 16, 13, 11, 9, 7 and 5 through tenth; places 11–15 earn 3; places 16–20 earn 1. Other positions and statuses earn zero.

Your overall score is the total earned by your seven riders across all nine stages. Leaderboards may remain provisional while official results are checked. If an official result changes, the leaderboard may be corrected with an updated publication time.

How are ties decided?

Overall ties are decided by:

1. correct prediction of the final overall winner;
2. smallest error in the predicted final winning margin; then
3. earliest valid server-confirmed entry.

Selected stage-prize ties use the overall tie-break, applied after Stage 9.

What can I win?

The approved prize pool is AUD $3,000 (approximately USD $2,000 at the 21 July 2026 valuation date) in Black Sheep product credit. Complete values, redemption, tax and verification requirements are in the Competition Rules.

Why did my team name change or disappear?

Team names are public and moderated. A name may be hidden or replaced if it is offensive, unlawful, impersonating, misleading or otherwise breaches the Rules. Contact support if you believe a moderation decision was made in error.

What if the game or data feed is unavailable?

The race, stage, prize and campaign information should remain viewable if the private game service is temporarily unavailable. Entry is not accepted until the server confirms it. The Promoter may pause entry or leaderboard publication while it investigates an outage or data discrepancy.

If an incident affects the deadline or valid entries, an update will be posted on the Competition page as soon as reasonably practicable.

How is my information used?

The game stores your Shopify customer identifier, team details, selections, prediction, consent versions and operational audit information. The public leaderboard shows only moderated team name, rank and points. Marketing consent is optional and separate.

Read the Game Privacy Notice for full details or contact info@blacksheepcycling.cc for access, correction, deletion or complaint requests.
