What is Sports Prophet
Sports Prophet is an Irish owned sports prediction website which facilitates fundraising for clubs.
Competition leagues are set up and points rewards for correct predictions.
Entry into the Lux GAA league is open to anyone, members and non-members alike.
The concept is simple
You predict the winners of various sporting events during the 2012 calendar year (GAA, Rugby, Soccer, Golf etc). Points are awarded to each entrant for every question they predict correctly. However if their particular choice for that question only comes second or third or reaches a final or semi-final etc you may still earn some points (The exact points available for each question can be seen on the prediction sheets).
Costs / Prizes
Entry is a mere €20, and you are not limited to how many times you can enter.
The prizes are as follows: (1st) €300, (2nd) €150, (3rd) €100, (4th) €50 and (5th) €25 within the Lux GAA club competition. You can also win your choice of either 2 All-Ireland Hurling or Football tickets if you finish top of the Overall Player Leaderboard on SportsProphet.ie.
How to enter
There are two ways you can enter our league:
1) Go to sportsprophet.ie and click ‘submit your answers’. While entering your details, be sure to select “Luxembourg GSCL” as your club. Once completed, you select all your predictions for the coming year. You can then send your entry fee to:

2) Alternatively, you can download the form linked below, fill it out and circle your predictions on the answer sheet and hand it, along with the entry fee, to any committee member.
