Welcome to the El Segundo Education Foundation’s March Madness 50/50 contest! This is not your typical March Madness contest. Our “Super Squares for Schools” gives you 15 chances to win! Your square is your ticket to win throughout the NCAA Tournament kicking off with the Sweet 16 Round on March 27.

 

Here’s how it works :

Each square you purchase on the 10×10 grid of squares will be your square for every game throughout the tournament starting with the Sweet 16 Round and ending with the Championship Game for a total of 15 games and 15 chances to win!

Prior to the start of the first game on March 27, each row and column will be randomly assigned a number from 0 to 9 to represent the last digit (the ones value) of the final score for each game. These numbers will remain locked in place for the entire tournament.

The horizontal (top) axis will always be associated with the winning team of each game and the vertical (left) axis will always be associated with the losing team of each game.

After each game one square per grid will be declared the winner. The winning square will match the last digit of the winning and losing teams’ final score on the grid.

The winner for each game will receive a 50/50 split of the total pool, not just one grid. This means that you have the opportunity to potentially win 1/15th of 50% of the total pool each game (approximately $330 per game for 15 games). The remaining 50% of the proceeds will go directly to the Ed! grant to the El Segundo Unified School District, funding programs at our schools.

 

How do you participate?

Purchase your square(s) below. Each square is $100. Be on the lookout for your purchase confirmation email. Don’t forget to check your spam folder!

Sincerely,

— Your Ed! Foundation
