This article focuses on key Web sites for sports research at national and international levels. As the list of sports is extensive, some sports are not represented. Sports research has become a significant activity at colleges and universities. An examination of baseball and steroids, for example, produces articles published in the Journal of Legal Medicine, Journal of the American Medical Association, Lancet, American Journal of Sports Medicine, Physician & Sports Medicine, Sport in Society, and The Economist. Baseball, in particular, has been a topic of serious research in academe, possibly as a result of the extensive data and information available for the 19th and 20th centuries. Research in other sports has also become serious and rigorous.
