The sports magazine show was broadcast weekly, between 2005 and 2010, on Friday evenings at 6:30pm on CBBC Channel and on Saturday mornings on BBC Two at 7.25am.

First broadcast in 2005, Sportsround was a well-known children's programme, regularly having big names on the show, including David Beckham, Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button and Frank Lampard.

It was replaced by a new sports show Match of the Day Kickabout, which airs in Sportsround's original BBC Two slot on Saturday mornings.

It aired on Fridays at 6:10pm on the CBBC Channel and for the first time was repeated on Saturday mornings at 7:25am on BBC Two.

Sportsround interviewed many British and world sports stars, including Lewis Hamilton, David Beckham, José Mourinho, Wayne Rooney, Rafael Nadal, Michael Jordan, Steven Gerrard, Dame Kelly Holmes, Martina Hingis, Anna Kournikova, Ian Poulter and Armand Traoré.
