A Passion for Football, A Vision for Change
StatrDraft began as a passion project born out of a love for football and the desire to create something truly unique. Over a decade ago, in the backroom of a phone shop, a small team of football enthusiasts envisioned a fantasy platform that would celebrate the depth, strategy, and inclusivity of the game.
From these humble beginnings, StatrDraft has grown into a movement redefining how fans experience fantasy football.
The Problem We Set Out to Solve
Fantasy football platforms have traditionally relied on outdated gameplay mechanics and simplistic scoring systems. Identical rosters, an overemphasis on goals and assists, and a lack of representation for women’s football left millions of fans underserved and disengaged. We saw an opportunity to reimagine the game and build something better.
Building the Future of Fantasy Football
StatrDraft is the result of years of innovation, research, and dedication. We created a platform that:
- Values Strategy: Our draft-style gameplay and comprehensive scoring metrics ensure every decision matters.
- Promotes Inclusivity: As the first fantasy platform to fully integrate the Women’s Super League (WSL), we’re making the game accessible to a broader audience.
- Connects Communities: Through innovative features, social engagement, and global tournaments, we’re building a vibrant network of football fans.
Milestones Along the Way
Our journey has been marked by significant achievements:
- Award-Winning Innovation: StatrDraft was recognized as a high-potential startup, winning the NDRC Startup Sprint Award and participating in the Enterprise Ireland New Frontier Phase 2 program.
- Growing Community: With thousands of followers on Instagram, tens of thousands of TikTok views, and a popular podcast, we’re connecting with fans in meaningful ways.
- Endorsements from Football Icons: Support from notable figures like Anders Lindegaard, ex-Premier League goalkeeper, validates our vision and approach.
