'''''Backyard Sports''''', formerly called ''Junior Sports'', is a [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|sports]] video game series originally made by [[Humongous Entertainment]], which was later bought by [[Atari]]. It is the only game series that has licensing from all the major professional sports leagues in the USA: the MLB, MLS, NFL, NBA, and NHL.
 
There have been over 30 games published in the series, [[Seasonal Rot|the first few of which are regarded as quite good and the last few of which are regarded as awful]]. There are six main brands associated with the series: ''[[Baseball|Backyard Baseball]]'', ''[[The Beautiful Game|Backyard Soccer]]'', ''[[American Football|Backyard Football]]'', ''[[Basketball|Backyard Basketball]]'', ''[[Ice Hockey|Backyard Hockey]]'', and ''Backyard Skateboarding'' (which has only produced one game and its [[Updated Rerelease|Game of the Year Edition]]). The series has spawned [[The Anime of the Game|a TV special]] (''NFL Backyard Basics: Football Tips from the Pros'') and [[Tie-in Novel|a few books]], as well as a [[Comic Book Adaptation]] (a [[Prequel]] to the game ''Sandlot Sluggers'') which can be read [https://web.archive.org/web/20140224162858/http://www.backyardsports.com/sandlot_sluggers/comic here].
