Charlie Brougham

International Sports Commentator & Broadcaster

Charlie Brougham is an international sports commentator with more than 20 years’ experience covering major sporting events around the world.

From Olympic and Paralympic Games to World Cups, Asian Games, Pan American Games and Commonwealth Games, Charlie has built a career around live sport – working for leading broadcasters, international federations and world-feed productions across an unusually wide range of disciplines.

20+ YEARS • 11 OLYMPIC & PARALYMPIC GAMES • 50+ SPORTS • GLOBAL BROADCAST EXPERIENCE

Charlie has worked at 11 Olympic and Paralympic Games across eight editions, from London 2012 to Milano Cortina 2026, covering both Summer and Winter sport. His Olympic commentary has ranged from hockey, archery, football and beach volleyball to alpine and para alpine skiing and alpine snowboarding.

That breadth runs throughout Charlie’s career. He has commentated extensively across sports such as hockey, alpine skiing, tennis, basketball, football, netball, archery and beach volleyball, alongside numerous other disciplines at major multi-sport Games.

Charlie has been one of the leading English-language voices of international hockey for more than a decade. A long-standing lead commentator for the International Hockey Federation (FIH), he has covered every edition of the FIH Pro League, four Men’s and four Women’s Hockey World Cups, multiple World Cup finals, Olympic Games, Olympic and World Cup qualifiers and major international and continental championships around the world.

His winter sports experience includes Olympic and Paralympic alpine skiing, FIS Alpine World Cups and World Championships and the BBC’s Ski Sunday, while his work across tennis has included Wimbledon, the WTA Tour and international world-feed commentary.

Charlie has also spent more than a decade commentating on EuroLeague and EuroCup basketball, alongside football assignments ranging from Premier League and international football to major international competitions.

And at major multi-sport Games, versatility is central to the job. Charlie has covered disciplines ranging from fencing, diving and weightlifting to rugby sevens, shooting, softball and table tennis, bringing the same preparation and broadcast approach to each new assignment.

Beyond commentary, Charlie works as a presenter, stadium announcer and voiceover artist. His credits include the Rugby World Cup, FA Cup Final, Netball World Cup, Cricket World Cup and Invictus Games, together with voiceover work for A League of Their Own, Mobil 1 The Grid and international sports programming.
