Skill Contest

Skill Contest is an exciting prize competition website that gives players the chance to win great prizes using their skill and judgement. At the same time, it provides a platform to raise awareness of and to contribute to a range of important social issues.


Skill Contest is based on an online version of the popular and well-loved Spot the Ball game that has featured in UK newspapers for many years. Competitions are usually defined by exceptional odds, and unlike other gaming sites, winners are chosen based on their skill and judgement, not luck. Each competition results in at least one winner, however Skill Contest is indifferent in the outcome of its competitions. Skill Contest is currently available in English and in 3 currencies.

Skill Contest is dedicated to working in close partnership with charitable organisations. We build long-term relationships with charities and NGOs to raise awareness of important social issues, in addition to providing fundraising and charitable donations. This provides an opportunity to combine the excitement and energy of gaming and winning prizes with objectives of greater social purpose.

In addition, Skill Contest has forged partnerships with a range of top suppliers and advertisers to consistently feature a wide selection of prizes at very attractive odds for its players. This allows its partners to build a presence in the fast-growing online skill gaming sector. At the same time, by working hand in hand with Skill Contest, suppliers and advertisers help support important social causes, thereby enhancing their own image in the eyes of their potential customers.

Skill Contest was developed with guidance from the UK's industry regulators to help define best practice in online skill gaming, and constantly strives to uphold both the guidelines and the spirit of policy makers. While it is designed to be fun and exciting, Skill Contest is focused on promoting transparency and fairness at all times. With this in mind, great effort is made to prevent underage players, protect players and encourage responsible playing.
