Mic’d Up sports videos are fun to watch and possibly even more fun to make! This video breaks down everything you need for two different approaches: one with a stationary action camera and separate audio recorder, and another method using a mirrorless camera and wireless mic system.

I’m using hockey as an example here, but hopefully you can see how the basic concepts could be adapted to other sports.
