The Logie for Best Sports Program is an award presented annually at the Australian TV Week Logie Awards. The award was first presented at the 29th Annual TV Week Logie Awards, held in 1987 when it was originally called Most Popular Sports Coverage. For the 2016 ceremony, it was renamed from Most Popular Sports Program to Best Sports Program. It is given to recognise an ongoing Australian sports program, where the general theme of the show is sport, with the emphasis on commentary and highlights. The award was eliminated in 1999, but was reintroduced in 2000. The winner and nominees of Most Popular Sports Program are chosen by the public through an online voting survey on the TV Week website. The NRL Footy Show holds the record for the most wins, with ten, followed by The AFL Footy Show with eight wins.
