Fantasy Sports is also an interactive betting game which is different to just betting with a bookmaker. Customers have the chance to prove themselves within a large community and the thrill of your predictions being proven right is a great thing, not to mention the chance of making money. FanDuel is the premier destination for sports fans online. In 2009, FanDuel reimagined the concept of fantasy sports, giving fans the ability to play one-day fantasy sports for real cash prizes. And despite many imitators, there’s still no better place to play. After launching in 2018, it didn’t take long for FanDuel to become America’s go-to for sports betting and the #1 online sportsbook.

February 24, 2021 - Northwoods League (Northwoods) News Release

Rochester, Minn. - In anticipation of its 28th season of baseball, the summer-collegiate Northwoods League has partnered with U.S. Integrity as it seeks to gain approval for regulated wagering in multiple Midwestern states. USI is assisting in the wagering approval process and will monitor all Northwoods League games for potentially nefarious betting-related behavior from match-fixing to game manipulation. In addition to pursuing options for legal, regulated sports betting, the Northwoods League is also looking to engage its fans via a fantasy baseball game and a free-to-play prediction game embedded in the league's phone app.

'In the past two years, legal regulated sports betting has taken off in 25+ U.S. states,' said Matthew Holt, CEO of U.S. Integrity. 'Baseball fans are constantly looking for new and innovative ways to get more engaged in their local teams, and all the Northwoods League's mobile innovations do that.'

'We are very well positioned to pursue this endeavor with our video and technological capabilities,' said Northwoods League Chairman, Dick Radatz, Jr. 'U.S. Integrity has taken a year long process and reduced it to a matter of months. We are looking forward to a long and mutually beneficial partnership.'

U.S. Integrity is North America's leading 24/7 monitoring service, providing the highest level of protection against betting-related fraud and corruption.
