We often talk about, watch and enjoy sports, particularly, the Olympic and Paralympic games. Sports digital archives have a huge potential to promote sports in many contexts such as research and education. As for digital archives in the cultural and historic domains, it is necessary for us to have a broad view of the domain to build sports digital archives, from tangible to intangible resources and from digitized to born-digital resources including databases. This article aims to discuss issues required for the next steps of development of sports digital archives based on discussions at an advisory group for a study project on the framework of sports digital archives by the Agency for Sports.
