In each guide, we will give you information about the bookmakers in Ireland where you can bet on that particular sport, some great tips for betting on that sport, the best type of bet to make when betting on it, some of the major competitions that you should follow, as well as the teams that you should keep an eye out for (this obviously only applies to team sports).
