HFC sports data
How sports coverage works.
Hangout FC mixes three layers: daily news feeds for four sports, first-party sports data for twelve, and open-web sourcing when we don't have our own numbers yet. Here's the honest map.

Where can I use which sport?
Three layers. No pretending.
Daily feeds are four sports. Our own data is twelve. Everything else still works from the open web.

More sports with our own data
These eight aren't on the daily news feeds yet, but they share the same first-party stats, lineups and fixtures as the big four above. The Booth routes each question to our data desk or cited web and X; Dossiers and Press Box use our numbers where we have them, with web sources filling gaps.

Boxing
We don't have boxing data in-house yet, but you can still write boxing articles in Press Box, build boxing Dossiers, and ask The Booth — we'll use the web instead.
TagCricket
We don't have cricket data in-house yet, but you can still build IPL Dossiers, write Press Box articles and ask The Booth — we'll use the web instead.
Indian Premier League
TagGolf
We don't have golf data in-house yet, but you can still build Dossiers, write Press Box articles and ask The Booth about a tournament or a player — we'll use the web instead.
TagTennis
We don't have tennis data in-house yet, but ATP, WTA and Grand Slam coverage all work — you can build Dossiers, write Press Box articles and ask The Booth, sourced from the web.

Don't see your sport?
You can still create on it.
The Booth, Dossiers and Press Box still work — usually from the open web when we don't have our own data. If a tool can't help, we say so plainly.
