Welcome to Sleeper!


Follow these steps to move your dynasty league over to Sleeper.

1. Create a League

After signing up or logging in, create a new league:

  • Give your league a name

  • Hold off on inviting league mates for now

You’ll set everything up first, then invite everyone once rosters are ready.

2. Update League Settings

Before adding players, customize your league:

  • Scoring settings

  • Roster size and positions

  • General league rules

Make sure these match your previous league as closely as possible.

3. Enter Current Rosters via Draftboard

Use the draftboard to recreate your league’s current rosters:

  • Open the Draftboard from the Draft menu

  • Assign each column to a specific team

  • Tap on a player tile → select Manually Set Player to add players

  • Continue until all rosters are filled

Once complete:

  • Start the draft

  • Immediately end it

This locks in all teams and players.

4. Invite Your League

Now that teams are set up, invite your league mates:

  • Share your league’s custom invite link url (found on the homepage or in settings)

  • Send via text, email, or social media

  • Or invite directly by username

5. Assign Managers to Teams

After everyone joins:

  • Go to League Settings → Members

  • Assign each user to their correct team

Once all teams have managers, your league setup is complete.

Optional: Add a Supplemental (Rookie) Draft

You can create a supplemental draft if needed:

  • Limit it to rookies or vets only, or all players

  • Generates draft picks that can be traded

  • Run as many as you want (one at a time)

That's it!  Welcome to Sleeper!
