I'm hosting a Euro 2024 competition online. It's completely free to enter and you're welcome to invite your friends and family. The deadline to enter is 14th June.

I'll write out some info below, but I've also made a nice colour-coordinated website with all the details here: Last Man Balling.

Prices:

 

Rules
Pick three teams without exceeding the £50 total budget.
Earn 3 points for each win and 1 point for each draw, based on your teams' performance throughout the entirety of Euro 2024.
Draws only count in the group stage as the three points will be allocated to the team that progresses through the knockout rounds, regardless of the score at full-time.
If you go over the £50 budget, you will not be included in the game so please double check your total cost before submitting your selections.
The player whose chosen teams have the most points at the end, wins a prize. Prize TBC
The deadline to join is 5pm BST on Friday 14th June and it is completely free to play. The first game kicks off at 8pm on this date.

Tiebreaker:
In the event of a tie at the end of the tournament, the winner will be decided by a tiebreaker.
When submitting teams, everyone must predict the total number of goals scored throughout the tournament.

Euro 2012: 76 goals

I won’t spam my post count about my silly Euro 2024 competition but here is the list of all 225 entries: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MLvrLyymtj515Pjj0UYaKLB85ZkEFSqx/view?usp=sharing

 

And the chosen nations, ordered by group: 

You will see there are a number of duplicate picks, where multiple people have selected the same three nations. However, only two people who chose the same three nations also chose the exact same tiebreaker. So as long as Nicolas Gomez and Matthew Swift don't get the highest score, there will be an overall winner.  

 

If you do want updates (and can tolerate the Euros chat) you’re welcome to join the dedicated WhatsApp group where I’ll post the daily leaderboard: https://akr.st/lmbwa
