Back in 2023, a group of friends found themselves in a familiar setting: watching a game of darts on TV, drinks in hand, and the excitement of the match in the air. As the competition heated up, so did the idea of adding a new layer of fun —something that combined their passion for sports with their love for drinking games. Thus, the concept of Drink Sports was born.

The Passion Behind Drink Sports
At the heart of Drink Sports is a deep-rooted passion for all things sports. Whether it’s the thrill of a close football match, the strategic intensity of a darts game, or even a day at the cricket, sports have a unique way of bringing people together. For our founders, sports weren’t just a hobby; they were a way of life. Watching a game was always a social event, a chance to connect with friends, share a few laughs, and, of course, enjoy a drink or two.
A Love for Drinking Games
Alongside their passion for sports, our founders also shared a love for drinking games. From classic games like beer pong to inventive card games, drinking games have always been a staple at social gatherings. They add an extra layer of excitement, turning a regular night with friends into something memorable. But as much as they loved these games, there was something missing—a sports-based drinking game that could be played while watching their favourite matches.
The Spark of Inspiration: Darts and Drinking
The idea for Drink Sports truly took off one night when our founders were gathered to watch a darts match. As the arrows flew, they realised that the excitement of the game could be enhanced even further with a drinking game tailored specifically to darts. They began to brainstorm ideas, incorporating the rules of darts with the elements of a traditional drinking game. The result was not just a fun way to watch the match, but a completely new type of sports drinking game.

Creating Something Unique: Sports-Based Drinking Games
From that night on, the idea grew. Why stop at darts? What if there were drinking games designed for every type of sport? We saw the potential to create a range of sports drinking games that could be played in any setting, whether you’re watching at home, at a pub, or even live at the event. We began developing rules, testing them out with friends, and refining the games until we had something that was not only fun but also easy to pick up and play.
Bringing Drink Sports to Life
With their passion for sports, love for drinking games, and the inspiration from that fateful night of darts, the founders officially launched Drink Sports. The mission was clear: to create a line of drinking games that added a new dimension to the sports-watching experience. Each game is carefully crafted to enhance the thrill of the match, making every score, every play, and every moment more exciting.
Today, Drink Sports offers a variety of games tailored to different sports, with our original darts drinking game still being a fan favourite. Whether you’re a die-hard sports fan or just looking for a fun way to enjoy a match with mates, Drink Sports has something for everyone. So, next time you’re settling in to watch the game, grab a drink, gather your friends, and get ready to take your sports-watching experience to the next level.
GAME ON
Drink Sports isn’t just about games; it’s about bringing people together, celebrating the love of sports, and making every match an unforgettable event. With our range of sports drinking games, you’ll never watch a game the same way again. Cheers to the game, cheers to the friends, and cheers to the fun—Drink Sports is here to play.
