Students and graduates will put their fantasy football management skills to the test for the chance to win £3,000 in the Milkround.com UniLeague.
The UK’s No1 graduate recruitment website Milkround.com has teamed up with The Sun to create the UniLeague, a unique UK university fantasy football game. Part of The Sun £1 Million Dream Team game, the UniLeague gives Milkround.com users the chance to go head-to-head as well as represent their institution in a university league.
Only Milkround.com registered users are eligible for the first ever UniLeague, and they also benefit from a discount voucher code for 25 percent off standard entry of £5 to the Dream Team game. All they have to do is log onto the UniLeague page on Milkround.com to claim their code; their reward could be a massive first prize of £250,000 as Dream Team champion.

Candidate Marketing Manager Chloe Burgess said: “I’m delighted to be offering our database of more than 500,000 students and graduates the chance to enter the UniLeague. We hope this fun alternative to job hunting will enable us to build even stronger relationships with students and their universities, especially throughout the season as students battle it out to prove they are the top fantasy football manager individually and as part of their university team.”
Sales Director Jenni Wollerton added: “Graduatecareer gives our clients the chance to build on their advertising with the UK’s number one graduate recruitment website with ad
