A long-term bet placed before or during a sports season and paid at season end.

• A. Future wager
• B. Seasonal wager
• C. Long-term wager
• D. Season-long bet

Answer: (A)

The main idea is a bet on something that won’t be decided until later, typically at the end of the season. When you place a bet before or during a sports season and you’re paid out after the season ends, this is called a futures wager. It covers outcomes that are set in the future, like who wins the championship or other season-ending results. That’s why this term fits best: it’s the standard, formal label sportsbooks use for long-horizon bets tied to season outcomes.

The other terms aren’t the standard category used in sportsbooks. They might describe the timing or scope in everyday language, but they’re not the recognized market name for bets decided at season’s end.
