Overview
Gambling Connection: BOYLESPORTS (UK) LIMITED holds an active UKGC gambling operator licence and is classified under SIC 92000, gambling and betting activities. It's the UK-registered entity through which the BoyleSports group operates in the British market.
BOYLESPORTS (UK) LIMITED has been incorporated in the UK since 4 March 2002, giving it more than 24 years of continuous trading. It's classified under SIC code 92000, covering gambling and betting activities, and it's registered at a Solihull address in the West Midlands. The company's active status and long operating history place it firmly in the well-established tier of UK gambling entities.
Its A+ company score of 95 out of 100 reflects a clean compliance record, transparent ownership, and a sustained presence in the licensed gambling market. The score draws on factors including age, director accountability, and absence of outstanding charges. Few companies in the sector score this high.
Despite being UK-incorporated, BOYLESPORTS (UK) LIMITED has Irish roots. It's part of the broader BoyleSports group, one of Ireland's largest independent bookmakers, and the UK entity was set up to hold the group's British operations. That structure is common among Irish-founded gambling businesses that expanded into the regulated UK market.
Governance
The company has two current directors and one current secretary, all of Irish nationality. One director is UK-resident. Ownership is concentrated with a single individual PSC holding between 75% and 100% of shares and voting rights, with the right to appoint and remove directors. That level of control is consistent with a closely held, family-run business structure.
