Following local sport in Bendigo has never been easier, with a combination of community radio, digital streaming platforms and social media meaning fans no longer need to be in the stands to stay connected to the action. Whether you are tracking the Bendigo Spirit through a WNBL campaign, following your Bendigo Football Netball League club through the winter season, or keeping tabs on the Bendigo Braves in NBL1 South, there is a way to stay close to the game from wherever you are.
Community radio is the heartbeat of local sport coverage in regional Australia, and Bendigo is well served. Gold FM (101.5 FM) and 3BOB Radio are among the stations that have historically broadcast BFL football and other local sport during the season, with live call coverage bringing the atmosphere of suburban oval football into loungerooms, cars and workplaces across the region. Checking the current broadcast schedule at the start of each season confirms which games are being called and on which station.
For the Bendigo Spirit, the WNBL's official streaming platform carries live and on-demand coverage of matches throughout the season. The league has invested in its digital broadcast offering in recent years, meaning fans can watch full games on smartphones, tablets and smart TVs. The Spirit's official website and social media channels provide real-time updates, post-game summaries and player content that keeps the community engaged between games.
NBL1 South, the competition in which the Bendigo Braves compete, also offers digital coverage through the NBL's streaming platforms. The Braves' own social media presence is active during the season, providing highlights and behind-the-scenes content that supplements the live broadcast options. For fans of the Braves who cannot make it to the stadium, this combination of streams and social updates keeps the connection strong.
The Bendigo Stadium website at bendigostadium.com.au is a reliable source for upcoming event listings at the Red Energy Arena, covering both Spirit and Braves home games as well as other sporting events held at the venue. Local sport coverage also regularly appears in the Bendigo Advertiser, which provides match reports, feature stories and player profiles throughout the year.
