Welcome to Score Five’s Second Great Season of Fun!

A warm welcome to returning and first time Score Fivers alike. We’re looking forward to another great season with you.

We’ve FORTY-ONE great prizes for the best of you including some random giveaways that anyone can win just by taking part. Score Five remains the web's most entertaining, comprehensive football prediction game. And best of all it's still FREE and it's even more FUN this season!!

Score Five brings friends and foes together in competitions predicting the outcomes of top football matches in the English Premier League (16 prizes), FA Cup (6 prizes), European Champions League (19 prizes) and, in 2010, the World Cup.

All it needs is one round of tipping brilliance to win!!

Points are awarded for predicting not only the correct overall match result - win, lose, draw - but also (and independent of the result forecast) for correctly forecasting the number of goals scored by each team. NEW THIS SEASON you can also win extra bonus points for correctly forecasting a banker game result. So there are many ways of scoring and winning.

There are no imaginary teams to build: Just the hardcore reality of each game to deal with. Each match is worth a maximum of five points for forecasting the correct score and result - Score Five! For more information, see our 'How to play' page.

Once again we are bringing you regular witty and incisive match round up commentary and analysis from guest contributors such as Chairman Damon in his "Five Spices" and Professor Statto our statistician and historian extraordinaire in his "Bunch of Fives". And of course no game like this would be complete without our own resident prediction expert, Magic Mike, whose match-by-match forecasts in "High Fives" saw off the Beeb’s Lawro in 2008/09 and this year will continue to challenge the best of you.

Create your own personalised community league for your pub, club, office etc., and invite your friends and associates to play the game with you this season. All our community leagues automatically also participate in our National and Global league competitions. Don't worry if you haven't got a community league to join yet, you can simply register to join one of our many public leagues instead.

In addition to bragging rights, where permitted, Score Five offers a number of official prizes provided by Score Five and its official sponsors. During the 2009/10 Premier League Season, we have weekly, season long and a host of other prizes including cash and air tickets on Virgin Altantic.

So what are you waiting for? Sign up today and challenge your friends. Are you a world champion in the waiting?
