Winter Sports
Australia makes football a winter activity, with multiple codes accommodating both boys and girls. Netball and hockey also run through the winter, beginning their pre-season training in autumn and concluding in spring. This leaves a six-month period of sporting action. Sports include Aussie Rules Football, Rugby League, Rugby Union, Soccer, Netball and Hockey.
Summer Sports
When viewing TV in Australia during the summer, two dominant sports typically appear onscreen: cricket and tennis.
All Season Sports
Year-round games such as basketball and Oztag are ideal for outdoor play, while indoor sports like table tennis, squash, badminton and pickleball provide participants with the opportunity to stay active year-round.
