Contests while traveling

Road games are athletic contests played at an opponent's venue rather than at home.

The term appears most often in professional sports, where teams alternate between home games and road games throughout a season: The team went 3-4 on their road trip.

Road games typically present greater challenges—unfamiliar surroundings, hostile crowds, travel fatigue.

A team's road record often reveals more about their quality than their home record.
