This is a simple mock planning spreadsheet. You can download it and then start tinkering around with your mock lineup. You can change the individual gymnast salary and the total cost and salary cap remaining will automatically adjust. 

Quick Info:

  • You have a $100,000 salary cap. This is new for the 2026 season
  • You will draft 6 athletes per event plus 6 for the all-around, requiring a total of 30 draft selections. This is new for the 2026 season (6 up, 5 count)
  • An athlete may have a different price depending on the event you select them for
  • If you spread your budget evenly across each each apparatus, your average spend per athlete would be: $3,333
  • If you spread your budget evenly across all 4 apparatus and all-around your average spend would be: $20,000
  • You don't have to spend the full $100,000, but you do need to draft all 30 positions.
  • The price range of athletes is: $7,500 - $1,500

It doesn't give me a download option when I right click.

Looks like someone had the same issue last year so tried following those instructions, but holding down the Shift + Command keys when clicking on the link (I'm on a Mac) didn't work either.

@rubyq1213 ok. We will continue to tweak the permissions. In the meantime you might want to try a different browser. Sorry it’s not working.

I've tried Firefox, Safari and Google Chrome now. I don't think it's a browser issue.

Ok, I've essentially duplicated it into a Google Sheet that you can copy/paste for your own usage: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ya7lFZGYJKuS8LaPsaB8d0fNF-zNEiarUD0MM7IQaZc/edit?usp=sharing

Is there by chance a spreadsheet that has the cost for each gymnast on each event? That would make mock planning much easier! The Fantasizr website is very slow for me and it takes a long time to look up athletes.

@kendra-krepel Sorry, we don't have that available. We're working to speed up and optimize the Fantasy website. Search tips: You can obviously filter by apparatus, but you can also search by conference, school, class and name of athlete. Another tip, you can refine your search by mimicking the structure of the description. E.g., "Freshman - Stanford" will show only Stanford freshman gymnasts. 

Hope this helps.

Does anyone have a spreadsheet version they could share of which teams are competing each week (so you know who is on a bye/double meet week)?

Or just a spreadsheet version of the full NCAA schedule at all :,)

Thanks!!

@megan-lagerquist You can find the schedule we use here: https://roadtonationals.com/results/schedule/2  

And for double meets/byes, we start by looking here: https://collegegymnews.com/2025/12/01/2026-byes-and-doubles/ but then adjust and confirm by referring back to the above schedule. As a general rule, we lump Mon-Wed. meets into the previous week when counting doubles.
