Should sports betting include more niche sports?

In Canada, hockey and football dominate the sports betting scene, but recently I found myself betting on something completely different: curling. Yes, curling. It started as a joke between friends during the last Winter Olympics, but to my surprise, the game was incredibly engaging—and so was the betting.

What I’ve realized is that niche sports bring a unique thrill. With less data and fewer betting lines, the unpredictability adds to the excitement. It’s also a great way to learn about sports you wouldn’t normally follow. Platforms like Betway and Bet365 are starting to offer markets for sports like handball, futsal, and even table tennis, which I think is a fantastic step forward.

Do you think niche sports deserve more attention in the betting world? Have you placed bets on anything unconventional, and how did it go? I’d love to hear your experiences. Let’s explore how betting can go beyond the usual suspects and bring more variety to the table.
 
Yes, niche sports are so underrated! 🍀 I once bet on table tennis during a late-night binge—it was random but so much fun.
