Presenting The Brackets...from United Pixelworkers + Dribbble

We’re huge sports fans here at United Pixelworkers, and the NCAA Tournament is one of our favorite sporting events of the year (confession: sometimes we even take days off from work to watch the first round). When Studio Neat (makers of the Glif and Cosmonaut) launched a new bracket pool app called Simple Bracket, we thought to ourselves, “we need to do something big with this.”

Turns out our pals at Dribbble were thinking the same thing, so we teamed up to bring you The Brackets, the first annual NCAA Tournament bracket mega-pool for the web and design community.

All you need to do to join is download Simple Bracket from the App Store (iPhone only this year, sorry Androids), search for the “DribbbleUP” pool, enter the pin number (2013), and you’re in! We’re giving away some incredible prizes to the winners, including swag from us, Dribbble, Shopify, and Studio Neat…and the grand prize pack for the champion: an iPad Mini, a special one-off “The Brackets Champion 2013″ t-shirt, and some serious bragging rights. We’ll be collecting other sponsors through the week, so (hopefully) the prize pool will keep growing.

The tournament starts Thursday (noon EDT), so join the pool and get your picks in soon!
