"SmartSweep" is an opportunity to enter a sweep with a difference.
Not just "pick a winner" out of a hat, but use your skills and knowledge of
international rugby to pick the match points differential and win higher
sweep points. You are invited to join this non-profit sweep and pit
your wits and knowledge against all those other hopefuls with a chance for
the prize money.
For each of the 3
Lions matches
on tour, you try to pick the winner and the
points differential at full-time. You can
update your selections as the competition unfolds and check how you are
doing in the Sweep here on the members' web site.
Sweep Points are awarded on the following
basis:
- Winning
Team.................................................... |
3
Sweep Points |
- Winning Team
and Points Differential within +/- 5....... |
5
Sweep Points |
- Winning Team
AND Exact Match Points Differential...... |
7

- Selecting a

9

The winner(s) of the Sweep will be the
highest Sweep Points scorer(s) after all of the 15 matches of the Six
Nations Tournament competition are completed.
|
If you wish to change your selected
Points Differentials as you see the form of the tournament develop, you can
do so as often as you like, so long as they are received by us before close
of business on the day immediately before the respective matches.

Your
Membership Fee of £10 by post or £11 by credit card (secure server
