How Get Your Sports Here works, from setup to your inbox

Get Your Sports Here sends you a short sports email each day about the sports, leagues, teams and players you choose. This page walks through it in order: how you set a briefing up, how it gets written, what lands in your inbox, and how to change or stop it.

The short version

• You tell it what you follow, either by picking from lists (sports, leagues, teams, players, topics to include or skip, tone and length) or by describing it in plain words to a setup assistant.
• Each day, Claude, an AI model made by Anthropic, finds public news about what you follow by searching the web, and writes a short briefing from it.
• Every fact has a small numbered note that links to its source, and the full source list is at the end of the email.
• The email arrives once or twice a day at the times you pick, in your time zone.
• Every email has links to change your briefing or turn it off.

Step 1: Tell it what you follow

There are two ways to set up your briefing, and you can use them together.

The first is the preselects. You pick sports, leagues, teams and players from lists. You can also name topics to include or skip, and choose a tone and a length. If you only care about one NHL team, you pick that team. If you follow two soccer clubs in different countries and a tennis player, you pick those three.

The second is the setup assistant. You type what you want the way you would say it to a friend: "the Celtics and the Red Sox, anything big in golf, and skip the betting odds." You can describe it first and then adjust the details with the preselects.

A useful tip: say what you don't want. "Skip trade rumors" or "no fantasy advice" tells the briefing what to leave out, and leaving things out is what keeps it short.

Step 2: Choose when it arrives

You choose the send time, and it uses your time zone. An early-morning time means the email is waiting with the previous night's results when you wake up. You can also have a briefing sent twice a day, for example once in the morning and again in the late afternoon, ahead of the evening games.

If you follow very different things, say your local teams, European soccer and golf, they all go in the one briefing, each sport in its own section. Say in the notes which one you care about most, and it comes first and gets the most room. That stops a busy week in one sport from crowding out the others.

Step 3: How the briefing is written

Each briefing is written fresh. Claude searches the web for public news about what you follow, such as match reports, injury news, transfer news, previews and official announcements. It then writes a short summary from those sources, following your topics, tone and length.

Because the search happens each day, the email reflects what has changed since the last one rather than a fixed feed of stories.

Step 4: What's in the email

A briefing is meant to be read in a few minutes. What it covers depends on what you follow and what happened, but a typical one includes:

• Results for your teams and players, with the moments that decided them.
• What's next: the next game or event and when it is.
• Availability news: injuries, suspensions, players returning, transfers.
• The bigger story, if there is one, such as a coaching change, a record or a tight playoff race.

Each fact ends with a small numbered note. Tap the number and it opens the article the fact came from. The full list of sources is at the bottom of the email, so you can see at a glance where everything came from.

Why every fact links to a source

The briefings are written by AI, and AI can make mistakes. It can misread a score, mix up two players with the same surname, or present a rumor as more settled than it is. The numbered notes are there so you can check anything that matters to you in one tap.

In practice, you can read the email quickly for the overall picture. When one detail matters, say whether a starter is really out tonight, you open the source and read it there. If the source is a single unconfirmed report, you know to wait before relying on it.

More than the email: schedules, recaps and game sheets

The site keeps the rest of what you follow in one place:

• Schedule. Upcoming games and events for everything you follow, across sports.
• Recaps. Finished games with the line score, scoring plays and top performers.
• Game sheets. A one-page sheet you can make for an upcoming game, with projected lineups, who's out, power-play units, recent form and notes with sources.

For hockey, that means forward lines, defense pairs and goalie stats. If those columns are new to you, see how to read a hockey game sheet.

The general rundown

Your briefing can also include the general rundown: the big things across all of sport, from a rugby final to a sailing race, with the major leagues kept to a line each. It goes after your own teams by default, or at the top if you want the big picture first. With no teams picked, the rundown is the whole briefing, which suits people who like to know what's going on in sport without following anything closely. There is more on it in the general rundown explained.

Changing it or turning it off

Every email has links to change your briefing or turn it off, so you never have to go looking for a settings page.

A few changes worth considering after the first week:

• Make it shorter if you find yourself skimming the second half.
• Add topics to skip, such as betting lines or fantasy news.
• Move the send time to when you actually read email.
• If one sport keeps taking over, say in the notes which one matters most to you.

What it costs

New accounts get a 7-day free trial, and you don't need a card to start it. Nothing is charged when it ends; your briefing simply pauses until you choose a plan. Standard is $4.99 a month or $49.99 a year, with your briefing once a day and 15 game sheets a month. Plus is $9.99 a month or $99.99 a year, with your briefing up to twice a day and 40 game sheets a month.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to know exactly what I want before I start?

No. You can start with a team or two and add more later, or describe what you want to the setup assistant and adjust from there.

Can a briefing be wrong?

Yes. It is written by AI from public news sources, and it can make mistakes. That is why every fact links to its source and the full source list is at the end of each email.

Can I get more than one email a day?

Yes. Your briefing can be sent twice a day at the times you choose, for example once in the morning and again before the evening games.

How do I stop the emails?

Use the link in any briefing email to turn your briefing off. You can switch it back on when you sign in.
