2017 March Madness is HERE!

The brackets for the 2017 March Madness Tournament have been revealed, and you are now free to make your official Hoops Madness Contest picks.  Simply click above on the “Create or Review Entry” link above and begin entering away!

There are a few changes that your Hoops Madness Administrators have instituted this year.  One is a new email address.  Our old email domain died, so if you desire to communicate with us via email, please note that the new address is hoopsmaster@eqemarchmadness.com.  We no longer have access to the prior email domain, so please update your address books.

Second, and most important, is a change in the way we will be collecting your “contributions.”  The past logistics and the accounting process have resulted in a lot of financial complications, so we are instituting one single collection point, and that is a PayPal account, the link to which is displayed below.  Because of tardiness by an increasing number of entrants (and admitted failures on the part of your administrators) we are establishing a hard deadline by which we will require payment.  And that deadline is a short one – March 22nd.  That is the day prior to  the start Sweet 16 rounds.  If we do not have your payment in hand your entry will be deleted.  Please help us in the accounting process (and your chances to win) by making your contribution promptly.

Make payment here.  (Note that PayPal will indicate that you are “purchasing Custom Hoop Rings,” a technicality that we have had to implement.  Don’t ask, just play along, and no, you will not be getting a ring.)

So with that, we urge you to get started on your entries (or if you see fit you may wait until the play-in games have completed – the website will automatically update and adjust for the play-in winners).  Good luck in this years contest!
