Worldwide Sports Betting Calendar

Any given Sunday, Monday, Tuesday...

Sports betting is a year-round activity across the globe, but even the most rapid fan bases have an off-season. Just like you keep an eye on worldwide holidays, it’s important that sports betting affiliates keep an eye on the ebb and flow of worldwide sporting seasons.

To help keep you on track, here’s a rundown of the high, and low, points of the wide, wide world of sports.

United States of America

Even though baseball is the all-American pastime, it’s football that everyone is watching and wagering on. Though there are a few other big betting periods football accounts for the lion’s share of US sports betting.

United Kingdom/Ireland

Football, particularly Premier League football, is king in the UK but it’s not the only game in town. UK residents love wagering on all kinds of sports and are especially keen on tennis. Here’s the big days on the UK sporting calendar.

India

With a population of around 1.2 billion people;  a rapidly expanding middle class; and plenty of newly minted smart phone owners, India is fertile ground for sports betting affiliates. Not only do Indians love sports betting, large numbers of them speak fluent English.

Sports betting affiliates will also have no problem finding operators who market to Indians and accept deposits in Indian Rupee.

If you’re looking to maximize your Indian efforts, you’ll put all your money on Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket – the NFL of the cricket world. (Though cricket players play year round on a variety of cricket circuits.)

IPL – Schedule TBA

Canada

Canada is a melting pot country whose citizens follow UK, European and American sports with equal vigor. Of course Canada’s home grown version of football is the fast-paced Canadian Football League (CFL).

  • CFL 2013 – June 12-November 2
  • 101st Grey Cup Championship – Sunday November 24

Europe

On the Continent, football rules the roost with more domestic and intercontinental leagues than you can count. Besides the beautiful game, Europeans are fond of tennis and motor sport wagering whether it’s a holiday or just any given Sunday.

Australia/New Zealand

Aussie and Kiwi punters have put plenty of sports betting affiliates’ kids through college and are some of the most voracious, and reliable, players on the planet. Their special loves are rugby; its Down Under cousin, Australia Rules Football; and cricket.

In New Zealand, rugby is the top dog and the All-Blacks are the undisputed alphas in that pack.

Finally

No matter what worldwide holidays are happening, you can rest assured that somewhere on the planet there’s a sporting event happening. And wherever you find a sporting event, you’ll always find someone willing to place a wager on it.
