Opening this permanent location means more opportunity for kids to play soccer indoors in North Brooklyn. We're so excited to expand our offerings and be able to bring different programming to our community.

The Boston Red Sox are 1-4 after a full turn of the rotation and are once again looking for Garrett Crochet to play the part of the stopper.

According to the Lawn Tennis Association, only 15,000 British players picked up a padel racket in 2019 but by the end of 2024, that figure was more than 400,000. Of those, about 399,000 are probably mispronouncing it: think pah-dell rather than paddle.

I am delighted that the once-in-a-generation redevelopment of the Crystal Palace National Sports Centre has reached another key milestone with the submission of the planning application for its transformation. The 15hectare site, opened in 1964, is set for a revamp of its athletics stadium, indoor arena, and swimming and diving facilities.

With a 2-1 record, Canada will take on Cuba for the right to make their first knockout stage. It's pretty easy to say that the game is the biggest in Canada's WBC history, because either they win and finish first in the group, or they lose and go home. There will be no tiebreaker that'll come in to play, as the winner moves to 3-1, and the loser moves to 2-2.

The Orioles played the Nationals this weekend at Camden Yards, as the club unveiled new additions to one of the best parks in the sport. Instead of pumping out another Spring Training game in Sarasota, they went back home with just days before the season begins in earnest.

The first two games of the tournament saw South Korea topple Czechia by an 11-4 margin and Australia blank Chinese Taipei in a 3-0 victory. Highlights from those games include Guardians top prospect and 2024 No. 1 overall pick Travis Bazzana clobbering a deep home run to right field as part of a multi-hit day for Team Australia and Astros utilityman Shay Whitcomb belting a pair of homers for Team Korea.

The growth of indoor, technology-led venues in central London is reshaping how busy professionals engage with the game, making it more accessible, measurable and aligned with the performance-driven culture of the City. Across areas such as Moorgate, Liverpool Street and Bank, indoor golf spaces are emerging that allow professionals to practise, train and improve without needing to leave central London.

They were right. If you've been around interscholastic sports long enough, you can sense trouble. The real problem arrived in the fourth quarter, when two players tackled each other at half court. Coaches and teammates rushed in, and one boy appeared to kick the player from the opposing team. Security and administrators broke up the tussle, but this time parents made it to the center of the action.

In that experience I came away thinking that associations could actually be stronger for their members if they had voluntary membership, Cofano said. A lot of members view their dues as a tax and that creates this negative tension between members and the organization, and that is always an uphill battle in delivering value. In many parts of the country; however, it was challenging to untie Realtor membership with MLS access, Cofano said, preventing any sort of meaningful change.

Diamondbacks right-hander Merrill Kelly was scratched from a scheduled live batting practice over the weekend due to mid-back tightness, according to a report from Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic. Kelly and manager Torey Lovullo indicated at the time that the decision was mostly precautionary, but Kelly was still sent for an MRI in order to determine the severity of the issue.

The increase is being largely driven by the Gen Z population, as basketball is now the 6th most popular sport among the 18-24 year old demographic. Despite there being major continental competitions across Europe like the EuroLeague and EuroCup, basketball is a sleeping giant that is awakening in the UK. This movement is likely to cause a massive shift in the sport's associated betting markets as well, but the big question of whether basketball can break into the mainstream remains.

This is the first time that TalkNats has published a separate part of this annual-ish guide for the coaching staff. But these are unusual times. The manager and all but one of his twelve coaches are entirely new to the Washington Nationals organization. All but one of them are younger than the oldest active MLB player. Some confusion, as we try to figure out who's who in the dugout, is understandable.

Some concepts are hits. Some are flops. The experiment to watch this year is almost spiritual in nature: Can professional baseball make starting pitching great again? Baseball's obsession with velocity has dampened the soul of the sport. The marquee pitching matchup is an endangered species. The oohs and aahs over a 100-mph pitch have been replaced by yawns. The potential solution, or at least a piece of one, is evident in this job description:

The Milwaukee Brewers, Miami Marlins, Kansas City Royals, St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds have decided they will partner with MLB, which will produce their games for the 2026 season and beyond. The Tampa Bay Rays are also part of that mix, according to media reporter John Ourand, who first broke the news. The Cardinals, Royals and Brewers have formally announced the transition.
