Quick tips for connecting: Sports Edition
#1: Don’t catch the simplest group. For each word, consider other sports categories that it might fit – is this a word that can be used in football or a word that describes the scoring options?
#2: The second meaning is important. This puzzle likes to use last names or even university names that mean other things, tricking you into thinking they are words rather than names.
#3: The opposite is true. Words like injury seem to be a regular word, but it is also the last name of at least one professional athlete.
