No change at the top

KYS

 

After the Show Jumping at the RDS the three top positions have remained unchanged in Boyle GAA’s Know Your Sport Compeition. However, by correctly predicting that Ireland would emerge victorious in the Aga Khan Nations Cup, Eamon Davey, Justin McCormack and the O’Connors have put themselves well into contention for the prize money as the competition enters the business end.
Next up is the World Athletics Championships at the end of August.

Henri holds on to top spot

KYS

 

A much delayed finish to the British Open made no change to the top spot as Henri Clifford retains a 4 point lead from his nearest challenger Trevor Conroy. After  predicting provincial wins for Monaghan and Mayo along with correctly predicting the outcome of the Open, Peter Keane, David McKenna and Ray Hannon have climbed up the table and are well placed to challenge for the prizes.
This brings a hectic July to a close and there’s now just seven events left in Boyle GAAs Know Your Sport competition. In August the focus is turns to Show Jumping and World Championship Athletics.

Henri Hits the Front

After the mid summer break it was a bumper weekend of action in the Boyle GAA Know Your Sport Competition and a new leader has emerged.
With the Wimbledon Finals and provincial deciders in both Munster and Leinster taking place there were 20 points on offer and Henri Clifford got maximum points for the weekend to surge up the table and take first place.
Just 10 points separate the top ten teams and with 10 more predictions yet to be decided, the race for the €500 top prize is far from over yet.
