Between cash & Promo-Nation point prizes, a total of just over $10,000.00 was awarded to players finishing in the Top 40 of the 2019 Ultimate Qualifier Series. We are constantly striving to make Greater Omaha Leagues better for players and stand by our slogan of "It Pays to Play With Greater Omaha Leagues". We have set an early goal for the 2020 Ultimate Qualifier Series to beat that amount, but the money added to the Finale is participation based and comes down to how well the participation in leagues is throughout the year. The more teams we have participating, the more money we are able to allocate to the Finale payouts. Here's to a good year and being able to increase the pot for next year.

Congratulations to everyone and good luck to everyone in the upcoming year.
