Rugby, cricket & Gaelic

Pub sport and regional loyalty tie rugby, cricket and Gaelic games to particular places, so the map has to be kept in view, which a darts follower rarely needs for a world-televised event.

Rugby union and league bring handicaps and winning margins. Cricket brings innings and match markets, and Gaelic football, hurling and netball are the remaining entries, each with its own markets.

The Gambling Act 2005 and the Commission’s licence reach England, Scotland and Wales. Northern Ireland sits outside the Act, so a Great Britain licence says nothing about betting there, something particularly relevant to Gaelic games.
