#mixedsport #mixedinternationalsport #ausvindia #mixedcricket #mixedfootball IT'S TIME FOR MIXED INTERNATIONAL SPORT In 1973 and worldwide, it is estimated that 50 million people, TV viewers, watched Billie Jean King beat Bobby Riggs in the Battle of the Sexes mixed, singles tennis match. One of my most enjoyable, entertaining and fulfilling experiences as an Australian ‘sports fan’ was as a spectator at the Wimbledon mixed doubles semi-finals in 1979 when John Newcombe and Evonne Cawley narrowly lost to eventual champions, Bob Hewitt and Greer Stevens. It was not just the quality of tennis that impressed and entertained but the aspects of not just mutual respect, but fun and humour displayed by the Australian pair.   It is with intense interest Australians continue to follow sports of all kinds, not only via both electronic and print media, but also by enthusiastically attending games and events. Internationally and during this spring/ summer we have already seen the Matildas, Baggy Greens, Socceroos and the team formerly known as the Southern Stars playing against other national teams e.g. Brazil, India, Bahrain, Japan etc.. In fact both Baggy Green teams are currently involved in series against India. Of not just interest, but significance, how many reading this article have been involved in ‘mixed’ sports teams. I first played mixed netball games in the 70’s. I later played mixed futsal and then, most significantly, korfball, the world’s only mixed team sport. Most sports these days, including many which used to be regarded as ‘men only’ competitions now have ‘women only’ competitions e.g AFLW, NRLW. It’s now time to have mixed competitions, not just at local, state and national levels, but why not also at international level? All Australians must be aware of the crowd pulling abilities of the Matildas. I have no doubt the MCG would be at capacity for a combined Matildas/ Socceroos team V a mixed Brazilian team. The obvious development this Summer, whilst both the Indian women’s and men’s teams are touring Australia is to have a mixed ODI Baggy Greens V India. Such fixtures would not only be money raisers for the various sporting organisations but would initiate what could become a worldwide trend for all sports in all countries. A trend that would not only increase the popularity of various sports but could highlight and promote the social development of respect and care between genders.   

Five events to look out for in 2025: There may be no Olympics or Paralympics in 2025 but the sporting calendar is still steeped in high quality tournaments. AFP Sport looks at five major events that are taking place in 2025: Club World Cup  Where: United States When: June 14 to July 13 Since its first edition in 2000, the Club World Cup has struggled to raise global interest, prompting FIFA to turn the 2025 edition into a 32-club jamboree to be held in the US in June and July. Critics cite player welfare and further fixture congestion while FIFA points to global expansion of the club game. Undoubtedly it will generate a significant amount of cash for the interested parties. On the field, it may provide a last chance to see Inter Miami’s Lionel Messi, 37, in a top club competition while holders Manchester City, Barcelona, five-time winners Real Madrid, Inter Milan and Bayern Munich lead Europe’s 12-team charge. Women’s Rugby World Cup  Where: England When: August 22 to September 27 When New Zealand edged England 34-31 to win the 2021 edition, the Eden Park crowd numbered 42,579 – a new record for the women’s game that marked its increasing popularity. That was subsequently smashed when 58,498 rolled into Twickenham for England’s Six Nations game against France in 2023 but that record is likely to tumble again when Twickenham hosts the 2025 World Cup final on September 27. This 10th edition is the biggest and most ambitious so far as it goes from 12 to 16 teams. At the end of it, New Zealand and England, who have contested the last two finals, will likely be the teams to beat once more. Undoubtedly the global profile will be helped if the United States sevens star Ilona Maher does a reverse Antoine Dupont and books herself a place in the squad. With over four million social media followers, Maher is going to be one of the faces of rugby for some years to come. World Athletics Where: Tokyo, Japan When: September 13–21 Coming a year after the high of the Olympic Games there is always the danger that the World Athletics Championships will be a touch flat. But the venue and the competition suggest the 2025 edition will be anything but. Tokyo had the terrible misfortune to host the Covid Olympics, postponed to 2021, where the athletes competed in front of empty stands. This time the National Stadium should be rammed to enjoy the rivalries and talents that blossomed in Paris. There will be plenty of eyes on Dutch marathon runner Sifan Hassan and Botswanan sprinter Letsile Tebogo, who were crowned as the World Athletes of the Year for 2024, but also for rising stars Sembo Almayew, the Ethiopian steeplechaser, and Italian triple-jumper Mattia Furlani. Ryder Cup  Where: Farmingdale, USA When: September 26-28 Anyone doubting the popularity of the biennial USA v Europe team golf event need only look at the speed with which the tickets,…

Short term gain for long term risk is always a tricky one. That's the situation facing Euroleague Basketball is it considers a potentially lucrative offer from Abu Dhabi to host its showpiece event, the Euroleague Final Four. In my latest column, I examine why the short term positives are heavily outweighed by the long term consequences and missed opportunities that would come with such a move.
