sports sections
Scores and standings
Sports sections are the portions of newspapers or news websites devoted to athletic coverage—game results, standings, player news, and commentary.
The term usually appears in plural because readers encounter multiple such sections across different publications: He reads the sports sections of three papers every morning.
