    • Sports Documentaries

    Some people love playing sports. Some people love watching sports. Some people love both. But whether you take part yourself or prefer watching from your seat, there is plenty to enjoy in a great sporting documentary.

    Sport has captivated human beings for centuries, stretching right back to Roman times, when chariot racing and gladiatorial combat thriled enormous crowds. Things are a little more civilised these days – in most sports, anyway – but one thing that has not changed is how invested enthusiasts can be in the games and disciplines they follow.

    Documentaries are a huge draw for sports fans because they offer a much deeper insight into something they love. Whether they focus on a particular match, team, person or event, they can reveal stories and perspectives that viewers would never usually encounter. There have also never been so many to choose from.

    You might be surprised by just how niche some sporting documentaries are. Almost every sport is represented here, including those far beyond the mainstream. Below, you will find pages covering each sports category, with every one featuring our selection of the very best documentaries about that particular sport.

    Happy viewing!
