This is just a drill, you don't have to do anything until mid-July at the earliest.
14 of the initial 26 events are complete - and NBA basketball, US Open Golf and World Cup of Darts will join them in the next week.
So will start to run out of events quite soon.
Putting together a rough outline of events for the second half of the season.
Something like this so far.Sport Event 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Start Date End Date End Month 1 Soccer Championship as at 31/12 4 2 1 30/07/22 31/12/22 Dec 2 Soccer EPL Top Scorer 31/12 4 2 1 06/08/22 31/12/22 Dec 3 Soccer FIFA World Cup 4 2 1 21/11/22 18/12/22 Dec 4 Soccer FIFA World Cup Top goal scorer 4 2 1 21/11/22 18/12/22 Dec 5 Snooker UK Championship 4 2 1 1 08/11/22 20/11/22 Nov 6 Cricket T20 World Cup 4 2 1 1 16/10/22 13/11/22 Nov 7 Darts World Championship Best English player 4 2 1 13/12/22 01/01/23 Dec 8 Handball Womens European Championship 4 2 1 04/11/22 20/11/22 Nov 9 Horses Arc de Triomphe 4 2 1 02/10/22 02/10/22 Oct 10 Horses King George Chase 4 2 1 26/12/22 26/12/22 Dec 11 Golf Presidents Cup Top Rest Of World Points Scorer 4 2 1 22/09/22 25/09/22 Sept 12 Volleyball Mens World Cup 4 2 1 26/08/22 11/09/22 Sept 13 Rugby 7s Mens World Cup 4 2 1 09/09/22 11/09/22 Sept 14 Tennis Davis Cup 4 2 1 1 14/09/22 27/11/22 Nov 15 Tennis US Open Men 4 2 1 1 29/08/22 11/09/22 Sept 16 Rugby Autumn Internationals, England top try scorer 4 2 1 06/11/22 26/11/22 Nov 17 Athletics European Championships, Country Most Medals 4 2 1 15/08/22 21/08/22 August
I think 1->14 are fairly straightforward and copies of events that have worked before.
15- Men's Tennis failed before when everyone picked the same player - I think perhaps it might work now as the old guys are nearing the end and there are young players challenging for majors.
16 - I haven't used the Autumn Internationals in Rugby before, but it is one of the few sports going up directly against Qatar. But everyone has different opponents/amount of games, so limiting it to one countries try-scorers seems sensible.
17 - this is new but I don't think it's too left field. There's 3 or 4 countries who usually dominate but also scope for anyone (usually mdoug) to do a bit of research and find out that Portugal or Belgium have a golden generation of athletes. Crucially (for me), this is the only event I could find that actually finishes in August. I hate too long gaps between events.
17 events would mean 43 overall, but gives some slack if any of them don't work because everyone picks the same, which I think is possible in a few spots this year.
But as always, if there's anything anyone can come with that I've missed then let me now and I'll look into in. Or if you an make a case why any of the above shouldn't be in let me know.
(Note, I passed over Rugby League World Cup and Womens Rugby Union World Cup because of extreme odds-on favs)

Scotland knocked out of the darts in the quarter-finals by England.
England v Australia, and Wales v Netherlands is the semi-final line-up. Going to be very swingy in terms of this competition, particularly the second game.
In the Golf, Rahm is nicely positioned one shot behind the leaders, whilst DJ and Morikawa are 6 shots back which might be too much for victory but gives some hope of Top 5 points.
Disastrous 3rd rounds for Koepka and Schauffele make them unlikely to score.

Game 3 of the Ice-Hockey final tonight. Colorado 2-0 up on Tampa Bay, so that could end as early as Wednesday.
Wednesday 21:59 is also the Wimbledon change deadline.

Barty and Osaka situation is such a shame. Even up to a week or two ago I thought Barty might do a u-turn and at least turn up and defend and probably be competitive.
Surely going on court as defending champion is part of the winning experience.

Game 4 of the Ice-Hockey tonight. Tampa got one back on Monday so now it's 2-1 to Colorado.
T20 cricket is motoring along - nearly finished the 14 game group stage.
Top 4 in each group qualify - In the quarter-finals the winner of North will be home to 4th in South etc.
Mixed news on our picks - in the doomed box are Notts, Kent and Sussex.
Cruising into the quarters are Surrey ; and Somerset look likely to join them.
Work to be done but still some hope for Yorkshire and Hampshire.

Wimbledon final next, in about 12 days time (the Saturday afternoon).
Above table is the only 8 events left from the original list, and the first 4 will be over by mid-July.
So I'll have to launch the events for the second half of the year quite soon, first week of July probably giving you 3 weeks to get selections in.
Post #122 was a rough plan, if anyone has any nice events to add to it let me know.
I'm inclined to include shrapnels Rugby League World Cup Top Try Scorer suggestion - he has suffered through picking in 3 alien GAA events so something that only he would know about seems kinda fair.
