The Silver Logie for Most Outstanding Sports Coverage is an award presented annually at the Australian TV Week Logie Awards. The award is given to recognise outstanding coverage of sports.[1]

The first award for sports coverage was awarded at the 19th Annual TV Week Logie Awards ceremony, held in 1977 as Best Sporting Documentary.[2] In 1978, the award became Outstanding Coverage Of A Sporting Event.[3] From 1981 it became Best Sports Coverage and in 1985 Best Coverage of Sport. The award was discontinued in 1987 when it was replaced by an award chosen by the public Most Popular Sports Program until 2017.[3]

At the 60th Annual TV Week Logie Awards in 2018, an industry voted award for sport was reintroduced as Most Outstanding Sports Coverage.[4]
