It all starts with the WNBA on August 1, with two games in three days as the season continues its path to the play-offs.

SBS VICELAND and SBS On Demand will air each fixture, including one on August 10 that precedes the Under-20 Women's World Cup.

SBS will air each Young Matildas match at the tournament, starting with their opening group game against Costa Rica on August 11 before subsequent games against Brazil and Spain on August 14 and 17 respectively.

The U-20 Women's World Cup semi-finals (August 26) and final (August 29) will also air live on Australian screens, as will the Arctic Race of Norway from August 11-14 via SBS On Demand.

Motorsport fans will also have rounds seven (August 14) and eight (August 21) of the ProMX Championship to look forward to, before all eyes turn to the third of cycling's famous Grand Tours, La Vuelta.

SBS and SBS On Demand will broadcast all 21 stages live and free, with a special highlights program available each night on the main channel.

La Vuelta will span three weeks from August 20 to September 12, and follows SBS' coverage of the Giro d'Italia and Tour de France.
