About Africa Sports Live

Africa Sports Live is an independent sports news publication covering African and global sport for readers who want clear, timely and source-based reporting.

What we cover

Our core coverage focuses on football, basketball and mixed martial arts. African competitions, national teams, clubs, athletes and governing bodies are central to our editorial agenda. We also cover major international events when they have a clear relevance to audiences following sport across Africa.

Football coverage includes continental and regional competitions, national-team tournaments and African club football. Basketball coverage follows FIBA Africa, national teams, qualification pathways and leading club competitions. MMA coverage includes major promotions and events involving African fighters or carrying strong interest for African audiences.

How we report

We prefer primary and official sources whenever they are available. These include federations, leagues, competition organisers, clubs, teams and official event communications. Secondary reporting may be used for additional context, but important facts such as dates, fixtures, results, participants and competition formats are checked against reliable sources before publication.

News reporting and opinion are different forms of content. Straight news should distinguish confirmed facts from analysis. Any opinion or commentary should be clearly identifiable and should not present speculation as established fact.

Accuracy and corrections

Africa Sports Live aims to publish accurate information and to correct factual errors when they are identified. Material corrections may be noted in the article, while minor grammar, spelling or formatting changes may be made without a separate notice.
