Craig Webster is confirmed as the April winner of the DogHouse EPL Challenge, winning his choice of football kit courtesy of our challenge sponsors down at The Dog House. 

Craig tells us that even though he normally watches the EPL, he is actually a passionate Bradford City supporter and therefore did not fancy wearing another UK teams jersey. That's why has has opted for the Barcelona home kit.

Our Previous Winners...

Mark Ingle was our March winner. Despite being a Newcastle fan, he went for an Arsenal kit for his prize - he explains why... "I have opted for an Arsenal shirt despite being a Geordie! I have the Newcastle top already so picked a team that plays good football (not saying that Man U don’t play good football but I have a certain dislike for them since they stole the title off us that year when we were 12 points clear!!)"

Mark currently works at the Cayman Islands Government preparing their annual accounts and has been in Cayman for just 6 months.

James McLeod was our February winner of the DogHouse EPL Challenge, with an overall month score of 25 points! James opted for a Chelsea jersey and shorts for his prize. He is actually a Glasgow Rangers fan, but prefers to watch the Premiership rather than the SPL.

A qualified accountant and audit senior with Price Waterhouse Coopers since 2007, James stays 'CaymanActive' by giving most sports a go. He mainly enjoys the beautiful game of football though and used to play at an amateur level back in his homeland of Scotland. More recently he was in action as part of the Scottish team in the Cayman World Cup of Football tournament.

Kevin Ashworth was our January winner of the DogHouse EPL Challenge! Matching Willian's prior month achievement of 42 points in a single month, he ended up just ahead of second place Nick Lawton who had 38 points.

Kev wins his choice of EPL shirt, and has opted for Manchester United.

A true 'local' Man Utd supporter (i.e. Actually coming from Manchester!), his mum introduced him to Old Trafford at a very young age in the 1970's (when we played 2nd Division) and the passion grew from there. In later years I used to walk to the home games with my mates and take my place in the old Stretford End or United Road watching some fantastic players such as Stuart Pearson, Lou Macari, Bryan Robson and of course in later years the King himself.. Eric Cantona.!

Kev has been on Cayman for over 2 and a half years now, after having worked for 13 years as a Police Officer in Greater Manchester, UK. He now works for the RCIPS Training Department where he plans, develops and delivers training courses for new police recruits and staff.

At 40 years of age, Kev is 'CaymanActive' - trying to offset the effect of drinking Guinness and watching Man U in the Doghouse by taking part in as much sport as possible here. He plays indoor and outdoor soccer for the Doghouse Devils, Squash, local charity runs (most recently the Cross Island Relay), Triathlons, Swimming events any anything else that will reduce the middle aged spread!

Kev says, "The EPL Challenge has been a great addition to the CaymanActive.com website and the information contained in the site caters for all sports and activities here on the islands. The Doghouse is a great place to watch sport and socialise after a game and I'm well chuffed to have won this month's prize. A Man Utd home kit.. obviously!"

Willian Petit was our first DogHouse EPL Challenge monthly wiiner! Setting a new record for the highest points scored in a single round, and then proceeding to beat that record the following week, he ended up top of the December predictions table with 42 points; 5 points clear of second place James McLeod.

Willian wins his choice of EPL shirt, and has opted for Manchester United.

Sharing a  surname with former Arsenal, Chelsea, Barcelona and France international player Emmanuel Petit, Willian is a self-confessed 'die-hard Soca Warrior' with an illustrious career history of his own representing his college and club on the pitch in days gone by. Nowadays he is a a very busy football referee and is currently an assistant referee in the CIFA Premier League, and expecting to be refereeing Division 1 games in the near future. Last season he refereed the Government League Final and in the Youth Divisions and the Women's League, including the womens and under-15 girls FA Cup finals! 

Barcelona and Boca Juniors are amongst his favourite clubs outside of the English Premier League and Manchester United and Arseal are his favourite English teams. 

Willian is also very 'CaymanActive',  enjoying cricket, squash and tennis in addition to his refereeing. During the working day though, he is a Chartered Accountant and serves with the Cayman Islands Government as an Auditor within the Internal Audit Department.

Commenting on the EPL Challenge he says; "Happy New Year to all at CaymanActive. Thank you and the Dog House for putting on this challenge. It's been really fun so far!"
