We’ve officially entered the fourth and final quarter of the year, and regardless of where you are in the world and what season it is, the remainder of 2022’s global sports calendar is bringing some serious heat. It’s the dream of many to enjoy the game at the stadium, seeing the players in real-time as the clock counts down the minutes. However, if you and your friends just couldn't get your hands on tickets to England or New Zealand to see the rugby, or perhaps Qatar is just too far for you to enjoy the FIFA World Cup, hosting may just be the next best option. We’ve curated a list of the season’s major sporting events to look forward to, giving you more reasons to enjoy the larger-than-large screen of your entertainment area.

Formovie has it all.

FIFA World Cup 2022

FIFA president Gianni Infantino reported in May that the 2022 World Cup has an expected audience of 5 billion people around the world, making it the most anticipated sporting event of 2022. This year’s tournament will be iconic for two more reasons: This is the first time that a country in the Middle East, Qatar,  will be hosting the FIFA World Cup. The second reason is this is the last time that this tournament will have a 32-team lineup. An article on The Sporting News reports that starting in 2026, 48 teams will battle for the title of world champions. You can schedule a big screen viewing party for the opening game on November 20th when the hosts take on the South American country of Ecuador. 

While the four-year countdown to the FIFA World Cup hasn’t exactly come to an end yet, the sporting world has a selection of fixtures to raise our competitive spirits while we wait. 

Women’s Rugby World Cup

New Zealand will host the 2022 Women’s Rugby World Cup which is set to begin on the 8th of October, and last until November 12. This is the 9th tournament since the league was established in 1991, and we’re keen to find out if the hosting country will walk away victorious and defend its title for the 6th time. This is also a well-anticipated sporting event due to the fact that it was postponed last year, amid the global pandemic. The first day of the tournament will feature 3 games: South Africa vs  France, Fiji vs England, and Australia vs New Zealand.

Rugby League World Cup

We can expect the Rugby League World Cup to kick off in England on October 15th and last until November 19th. The last time that the tournament was hosted in 2017, England were the champions, so they’ll be defending their title this year against 15 other teams. They’re also set to host this year’s games, starting with a match against Samoa.

ICC Men’s T20 World Cup

On October 16th Sri Lanka will play the opening match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup against Namibia, at the Geelong Cricket Ground in Victoria, Australia. 16 teams will battle for the title of World Champions until the final game of the tournament is played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on November 13th.
