This is the square grid office pool that is very popular during the Super Bowl. The grid above is just a generic grid that can be used for any football game of the season.

How does the 50 square grid vary from the normal 100 Square Grid?
The concept is the same but each square will now have two numbers in the left hand column, which gives each square two chances to match the NFC score.

Step 1
Print the square grid from above and fill in the two blank lines beside the word "Team", with the two teams that will be playing. It does not matter which team goes on which line, as long as it is done before the rest of the office pool takes place.

Step 2
Sell each square for a set dollar amount until all squares are full, a player may buy as many squares as they wish. Once the player pays for the squares they are to write their name in the squares of their choice. If you feel 50 squares is too few or too many check out our 25 square grid and 100 square grid.

Step 3
Once all the squares are full it is time to set up the drawing. This can be done in many ways, listed below are 2 examples. After determining the drawing method, draw the numbers one at a time placing the numbers from left to right starting with the first gray square box in the top row, continue across the top row until the numbers are gone. After that is complete you will redraw the numbers, this time placing the drawn numbers in the gray square boxes in the left column, starting at the top.
Example 1: Write the numbers 0-9 on pieces of paper and place them in a hat.
Example 2: Get a deck of cards A through 10, the ace represents a one, the 10 represents a 0, 2-9 are face value

Step 4
Now is time for the fun!! Begin watching the game, at the end of each quarter match the last digit of each teams score with the grid.
Example: At the end of the first quarter the team listed at the top has 17 and the team listed on the side has 14. Go to the top row of numbers and find the number 7(last digit of 17) then go to the left column of numbers and find the number 4(last digit of 14) find where these two numbers intersect on the grid and the name in that square wins the first quarter.

Payout's
There are a few different ways to split up the prize pool, make sure this is discussed before selling the squares. The most common method is to give the winner of each quarter 25% of the prize pool. If you sell each square for $1 the winner of each quarter will win $25. It is possible that a player can win all four quarters and the whole prize pool. Be sure to discuss what is going to be done in case of an overtime, some people will just ignore the overtime score, some people will substitute the overtime score for the 4th quarter, and others will then divide the prize pool by 20%. Once again to avoid problems make sure all of this is discussed before selling the squares.
