About the Premier League Memory Game
Twenty clubs play the Premier League; hard memory boards hold twelve pairs, so this deck is a curated monogram set (crests are copyrighted). Every club also has its own tribal theme — open Sports Memory Games to pick your side, then jump into season trivia for the same clubs.
What's in the Premier League deck
The full deck, so you know exactly what you're up against — 12 cards, 6 pairs: ARS ArsenalAVL Aston VillaCHE ChelseaCRY Crystal PalaceEVE EvertonLIV LiverpoolMCI Man CityMUN Man UnitedNEW NewcastleNFO Nott'm ForestTOT TottenhamWHU West Ham
Study tip: link the first three — arsenal, aston villa and chelsea — into one ridiculous mental picture. Absurd images stick; lists don't. Then do the same for the next three, and the board will memorise itself.
How to memorise a sports board
Anchor every item to a moment you have watched: the last-second shot, the penalty saved, the bowled stumps. Sports decks memorise through highlight reels — one mental clip per tile — because motion is what the brain archives best from sport.
Sort by the field they play on. Pitch, court, track, pool and ring each hold a subset of the deck, and knowing the venue of the missing volleyball shrinks the search from twelve tiles to the two that share its court.

How to Play
Tap any card to flip it over, revealing the premier league club image underneath. Tap a second card — if the two match, they stay face up and you keep going. If not, they flip back after a moment. Your goal is to match every pair in as few moves as possible.
Three difficulty levels are available: easy (6 pairs), medium (8 pairs) and hard (12 pairs). Switch between them any time with the difficulty buttons above the board. Start on easy if you're new, or jump straight to hard for a proper brain workout.
Sports deck questions
Are the sports decks club-specific?
The big club and franchise themes are — there are dedicated decks for dozens of football clubs and NFL teams, with the words and colours of each. This page's deck is the general sports kit; the club decks live under the sports category.
Good game for a sports-mad child who refuses "memory games"?
This is the horse to lead to water. A deck of things they already care about plus a timer plus "I bet you cannot beat 40 seconds" is the whole trick. Keep the scoreboard honest and they will come back.
