Sport can so often provide a welcome distraction to the unpleasantries of real-world events we’d rather avoid. So to see so many competitions cancelled or postponed due to coronavirus is, to say the least, unnerving.
The Australian Olympic Committee (AOC) has conceded the COVID-19 pandemic will ensure the Tokyo Olympics is delayed, telling athletes to prepare for a Games in the northern summer of 2021.
For most readers of The Roar, sport would have presented itself as a welcome escape during life’s difficult times.
Increasingly sport is being viewed as an entertainment concept, and in recent years we have seen many sports experiment with changes to bring added levels of excitement to fans.
The Australian Open has come a long way, from top players not even bothering to turn up for it several decades ago to it jostling for the position of the best attended grand slam.
The last time softball was contested at an Olympics Games was 12 years ago in 2008 in Beijing. Only two members of the current Aussie Spirit squad participated in those Olympic Games: captain Stacey Porter and Justine Smethurst.
The Hockeyroos begin their journey towards Tokyo this weekend with the start of the FIH Pro League.
On Sunday, the final event of the 2019-2020 Nutri-Grain IronWoman series will take place at North Cronulla beach.
The Aussie Stingers’ preparation for the Tokyo Olympic Games begins this week, with a series of three Test matches against arch-rivals the United States of America.
Australian tech company Unbnd has launched a new mobile app – Missing in Action (MIA) – that will allow Australian basketball fans to view the NBA in mixed reality.

I am not a Kobe fan. I am not a Lakers fan. Quite the opposite, in fact. I’ll actively antagonise my friends’ Kobe and Lakers fandom, poking and prodding in search of a bite.
Let’s look towards the 2020 competition through the lens of the shambles that was 2019.
He’s been asked about that ‘one moment’ millions of times but Steven Bradbury’s full story is fascinating.
On first inspection this first down completion looks like a bit of pure luck, but not so. The play, now dubbed “The Immaculate Reception” involves a runner dishing off by foot, and while it wouldn’t be found in a beginners guide, it set up an shock win for central high, who scored a winning touchdown […]
With the Back to the future deadline fast approaching, it’s beginning to seem like the 2015 that Michael Fox knew was a little ambitious. Except, that is, for Hoverboards. The world’s most famous skater Tony Hawk was invited to Hendo, a kickstarter who’ve finally got a hoverboard prototype off the ground. It’s a long way […]
This year’s edition of New York’s Snowflake Regatta took place this weekend, which wouldn’t normally be newsworthy but for the fact it might go down as the biggest maritime disaster since the titanic. It seems like a collection of the world’s worst rowers all decided to participate in the annual event, which make for some […]
