Sports PowerPoint Background

This sports PowerPoint background frames goal and net equipment in pale blue on a bright white canvas. A tennis net post, a rugby goalpost and a cricket wicket appear at the edge of each slide as light outlines. They stay small and out of the way, so most of the slide is open for match stats, training plans and lesson notes. It also works as a sports slide background in Google Slides for PE lessons, coaching sessions, team meetings and sports science classes.

Features:

  • Sports details: tennis net post, rugby goalpost, football goal net and volleyball net
  • 5 background layouts: object on the left, right or bottom, plus two diagonal corner versions
  • White and pale blue color palette with a clean, light look
  • About 80% clean space for titles, text, charts and diagrams
  • Widescreen 16:9 format (1856×1056 JPG)
  • Works in PowerPoint, Google Slides and Keynote
