Latest summer result: 3rd (2025) • Best summer result: Runner-up (2024)

Matthew "Sore Nob" Cooper is competing in a second consecutive summer tournament for the first time. Had he not had to miss the final event in 2021 he would have certainly finished fourth, a personal best, and top-half is definitely achievable for this mediocre athlete. However the leg-length/height based events in the middle of the day, 100m–basketball–cycling, always scupper his chances of a podium finish. Thankfully he has recovered from the norovirus he claims inhibited his performance last year and is self-certified "fit and well and going for the crown".
