A Survey of Large Models in Sports
Paper · 2026 · Yichen Xu, Jianzhe Ma, Chuhan Wang et al.
Summary
This survey maps how large models, especially LLMs and MLLMs such as GPT-4 and Gemini, are being applied to sports. Earlier reviews looked at narrow slices, such as exercise recommendation or sports medicine. The authors instead give a broad picture of tasks, data and open problems. They used systematic snowballing, with forward and backward citation searches following PRISMA, to collect 241 core papers published between January 2020 and July 2025.
The work is organised into three parts:
- Taxonomy. It spans 19 tasks across six kinds of stakeholders: athletes together with their trainers, coaching and teaching staff, referees, the media and fans, researchers, and the sports industry. For each task the authors describe the technical paradigms and the usual metrics.
- Datasets and benchmarks. The authors review the data resources available for these tasks.
- Challenges. They name four: hallucination, long and high-frame-rate video, interpretability, and real-world deployment.
The overall picture is that pre-trained, fine-tuned models generally beat systems built from scratch. Text-only shortcuts, however, lag behind models with proper visual alignment.
The survey and its maintained GitHub list (Awesome_Large_Models_In_Sports) give newcomers a structured entry point to the field.
Key points
- The volume of research grew quickly: papers on large models in sports rose from one in 2020 to 78 in 2024, and kept growing in 2025.
- On YourSkatingCoach, a fine-tuned T5 scores 0.27 BLEU-4 for training-plan generation. A vanilla Transformer trained from scratch reaches only 0.04.
- On SoccerNet-v2 action spotting, the results (t-AmAP) are:
- fine-tuned Soccer-CLIP: 75.7%
- COMEDIAN: 73.1%
- Llama 3.1-8B prompted with textual commentary: 60.8%
- On SoccerNet-Caption commentary generation, MatchVoice reaches 38.42 CIDEr, while zero-shot Video-LLaMA manages only 3.44.
- The authors propose four future directions:
- trustworthy sports AI
- streaming and long-video mechanisms
- knowledge grounding with tool use
- in-the-wild evaluation with edge deployment
