Sky’s the limit on Night of Champions

Tomorrow night is one of the biggest nights of the year in Tralee, the Betdaq Night of Champions at the Kingdom greyhound stadium, and this year it will be broadcast live around the world on Sky Sports (8pm to 10.30pm).

The question is though – is Sky taking over the Kingdom for the night, or is the Kingdom taking over Sky? A bit of both says Liam Lynch who, along with track manager Declan Dowling, is the guiding light behind the night.

“When we saw the level of expertise they bring to things it was a bit of an eye-opener for us but once Sky saw for themselves the ideas we had for making this a different kind of a night, I think it opened their eyes a bit as well.
