Puzzle of the week

Last weeks puzzle proved too difficult for most and remained unsolved until late on Friday when Mrs Stopher (with help) finally solved it.
Hopefully, this week's puzzle is slightly easier!
It has a sporting theme
Four good friends have four different favorite sports. Read the clues to find out who prefers which sport. 
 There are four children -  Hannah, Jane, Danny and Robert.  There are four sports - Soccer, rugby, cricket and tennis.

3. Neither of the boys here likes soccer best.
