  • the object of the invention is to provide a sports lottery which can enable winners to win substantial prizes and yet it is possible that there can be many players who win lesser prizes.
  • the invention includes, in its broadest aspect, a lottery type game wherein the results of the game are deterrnined from a selected parameter derived from the results of each of a number of team sports events.
  • the events may be contests between the teams in a particular competition, titte selected parameter being obtained from the ranking on the basis of the total score of each team.
  • the selected parameter could be obtained from the ranking on the basis of the total score of each winning team or, alternatively, the selected parameter could be obtained from the ranking on the basis of the total score of each losing team.
  • the game can be provided so the prizes for the game are provided in divisions, success in which are dependent on the number of correct parameters selected. It is preferred that where a division is not won, the prize pool for that division will jackpot.
  • the game differs from any other lottery type sports game in that in its preferred form a losing team my have a higher score than at least one wining team and so the ranking is not dependent on winning the game in which the team has played.
  • AFL Australian Football League
  • the competition has 16 teams which play a round of eight matches, generally between Friday even to Sunday afternoon.
  • the scores, in points can be substantial and it would be unusual to have more than two or three drawn games in a season.
  • the games of a round can be provided on a printed or electronic player game card, and the player marks the said player game card in the appropriate spaces marked with indicia corresponding to the player predicting the correct ranking of a predetermined number of teams in a final score table for all teams in a nominated round.
  • the winning numbers needed to win are provided by this table and in this case and for exemplary purposes only, say that the winning numbers required could be the six highest scores for a particular nominated sports round.
  • One example, which is our preferred method for AFL football, would be for players to nominate the six (6) highest scoring teams in their correct sequential order of highest to lowest for a given round of AFL football.
  • Another example, which is our preferred method for NFL football, would be for players to nominate the five (5) highest scoring teams in their correct sequential order of highest to lowest for any given round of NFL football.
  • the winning numbers needed to win this lottery are not necessarily all made up of winning teams, as is the case with other types of sports lottery games; but in our invention losing teams ca ⁇ also make up the winning numbers, as indicated in Example 1.
  • All player game data related to predicting say the six highest scores for a nominated round and the fee paid by the player to enter the game are entered into a programmed central computer system for eventual processing and matching with the final game data entered for the actual final six highest scores when the nominated games are completed. This information is then used to identify the winners. All players will receive a receipt, which may be both a receipt and a copy of their selected choices in the game along with a unique transaction code.
  • the six winning numbers to needed to win in this example of our invention when applied to this AFL Football round consists of four (4) Winning teams and two (2) Losing teams.
  • the Separator System The Separator System:
  • Method 1. - is a very simple process, in that when two or more teams have tied scores, then the team that scored the most points in the l st /2 nd /3 rd or 4 th Quarters (between the Teams with tied scores) will be placed above the other Team/s with tied scores.
  • Method 2. is again, a very simple process, in that when two or more teams have tied scores, then the team with the greatest winning margin (between the Teams with tied scores) will be placed above the other Team/s with tied scores.
  • Separator System - Method 3. Team that scores first by a timing device.
  • Method 3. - is again a very simple process, in that when two or more teams have tied scores, then the team that scored first, when measured by a timing device, from the commencement of the said game (between the Teams with tied scores) will be placed above the other Team/s with tied scores.
  • 1 st Set of winning numbers would be - 1,2,3,4,5,6.

  • 4 th Set of winning numbers would be - 2,3,1,4,5,6.
  • 5 th Set of winning numbers would be - 3,1,2,4,5,6. 6 th Set of winning numbers would be - 3,2,1,4,5,6.
  • Another aspect of this invention is the potential to operate a like game that may be based on individual player statistics within a team sport, such as requesting a player of our said game to select say the six highest possession receivers in any given game.
  • this individual player within a team sport game aspect could be applied to basketball for the highest points scorers in a nominated game or if for baseball, selecting the highest number of individual players that score the most runs or hits etc.
  • All Pools Jackpot feature is a feature not found in other types of lotteries or sports wagers and is unique to this invention.
  • Another aspect which we can provide is a self-seeding jackpot. This would be particularly applicable to the highest division which would tend to be won less often that the others and thus could very often have a jackpot component There could be retained from the prize pool a certain quantity of the pool which could be used to seed the jackpot of the first division in the period after this has been won. That is, the jackpot would normally be the prize pool for the week and any jackpotted amount, which would comprise the seed placed into the jackpot immediately after it has been won.
  • Another aspect of this invention is the provision of a progressive Jackpot meter for sports wagering which could be available at venues and, say on the internet. This has not been provided for either sports wagering or lotteries.
  • Another aspect of this invention is another type of sports wagering event that could apply to many types of sports, but as per our other examples included herein, we shall describe this aspect of our invention as if it was applied to AFL football.
  • This particular aspect of our invention is different again from most lotteries or sports wagering events throughout the world today.
  • the probability of a player selecting the correct finishing order for 8 of the 1 AFL teams is calculated as follows;
  • the invention can also readily be applied to other parameters in sporting events.
  • the game could be played on the number of runs made by cricketers in a match. In this case there could be either 22 or 44 results, depending on whether the game was played on a particular innings or for the whole match. Obviously, the leading batsmen would be expected to lead the scoring but there is always a possibility that a lower order batsman could make a substantial score.
  • the game could also be played on the basis of the players of one side. In football, of various codes, the parameter could be the number of possessions by various players or even the scores made by different players but, in this case, the scoring is most likely to be largely done by particular players.
  • the game could be played on the time at which goals were scored as with a low scoring game the likelihood of successful selection could be relatively high.
