Welcome to our list of major sporting events occurring in the month of March 2015.

This is the first time we have created a list like this. We are going to do it every month.

We aim to do purely major sporting events, as well as notable sporting events. For example – there’s no point mentioning the English Premier League each weekend, or NHL games every night. However if the EPL is taking a break for the FA Cup, then that should be mentioned we think. Furthermore if the NHL is having the all-star break, that would factor in.

We have comments below. We will be doing a calendar every month so if you have any suggestions then PLEASE post them in the comments. We’re doing these calendars for you!
