Welcome to the new home for The Mock Sports! For those of you who are new here, here is our story so far:
The Mock Sports is a podcast and sports media brand that revolves around Horse Racing and Sports and we aim to produce the best content possible for the common sports fan, with plenty of punting tips on the side!
In 2020, in the middle of a COVID lockdown with nothing to do founders Nick Hyland and Mitchell Cashmore both turned 18 and discovered the art that is punting. Like many others, we spent our first few months blindly throwing our money on everything in sight. However, eventually, we started to research, learn and get half decent at tipping horses to our mates. So, despite not having nearly enough knowledge to do so, we decided to jokingly start a podcast, just to get on Spotify and The Mock Racing Club was born.
Just over a year later, we rebranded to The Mock Sports so we could also focus on our passion for sports such as AFL, Cricket and NRL.
With our premiere show ‘The Quaddie Poddy’ we tip the entire Sydney Horse Racing card each week of the Autumn and Spring Carnivals and we are proud to say we have gone from having a handful of people listening each week to hundreds and sitting down and recording it with one of your best mates has become the highlight of our weeks.
With our community growing bigger, better and stronger every week, we decided to expand. In comes, a website, new content, new shows on the podcast channel and a strong focus on community engagement ensuring that we are not only producing the strongest content possible but also being as profitable as possible with our tips.
We want this website to be a platform where any passionate sports fan can come and share their opinion. We want to build the biggest community of like-minded punters and sports enthusiasts sharing their thoughts on the games they love and maybe even a few cheeky punting tips along the way. So whether you’re interested in Sports Media, studying it, pursuing it or already working in it OR just passionate about your field and want to voice your thoughts – we want you! Get in touch with us at [email protected] to contribute to the site!
So welcome to the community, we hope that we can help you proudly claim to be a Mock!
