Background & guide
About this archive
Connections Sports Edition began on 24 September 2024 and has run daily since. Every puzzle is listed here, one page per year, with the puzzle number, the date and the four category names — enough to recognise a puzzle without spoiling it for anyone still playing.
What the archive is good for
Read a year end to end and the shape of the puzzle becomes obvious. Certain categories return in different clothes: hall-of-fame surnames, jargon that means one thing in basketball and another in cricket, city names that carry a franchise. Recognising a returning shape is worth more than any single hint.
Looking for one specific day? Pick the year, then scan by date. Recent puzzles are quicker to reach through the last-seven-days page.
FAQ
How far back does the archive go?
To 24 September 2024, the day Connections Sports Edition launched in beta. Nothing before that exists.
Does the archive show the sixteen words as well?
The year pages list the puzzle number, date and category names. Open a single day to see all sixteen words sorted into their groups.
