The 2025 World Grand Prix takes place in Leicester this week. Involving the world’s top 16, as well as the top 16 from the one-year ProTour rankings, the event is unique in that players must start on a double (or bullseye) and do the same at the end to win a leg. - Monday-Sunday, Sky Sports

The Republic of Ireland are in Group D of the 2027 European Under-21 Championship qualifying competition, alongside England, Slovakia, Moldova, Kazakhstan and Andorra. Reigning (2025) champions England are hot favourites to top the group, but second place secures a play-off space. The Irish and Slovakia teams have both won their first two matches and now meet in Cork in a crucial tie. - Friday, RTÉ
