Abstract: This chapter is focused on sport events hosted at a national level. In meeting this aim, the chapter explores the impact of COVID-19 on a national sport event held in Australia as the major case study. The authors conducted a detailed analysis on a national road cycling event held in Ballarat in the state of Victoria. The city of Ballarat hosted the 2021 Australian Road Nationals Cycling Championships, with this national event providing a series of COVID-19-related logistical and event management challenges that are documented and dissected in the chapter. © 2023 selection and editorial matter, Stephen Frawley and Nico Schulenkorf; individual chapters, the contributors.
