I cover futebol here in Brazil.
Josephson C42 stereo ortf pair in the announce booth for crowd.
AT 4071's or Senn MKH 70's in each corner. 2 operated Senn 816's on fishpoles for the far sidelines. Senn 816 on each sideline camera.
Countryman isomax II hyper on a plate mount AND a Senn 816 behind each goal. AT4071's on tall stands for Crowd cheering sections. AT 4071's for each coach's box.
Another ORTF pair at field level for surround. ( I would prefer Parabs to operated shotguns, but they are not popular here.
For water sports: If there is an underwater camera I usually place a waterproofed Sony ECM 55 next to it, underwater. Shotguns mics or parabs at the goals and something for midcourt in the case of water polo.
Lav on the diving board, shotgun son team benches one mike per 2 lanes for races and underwater mics as needed for other swimming/diving events.
Basketball: ORTF pair at the announce table, courtside, pointing cross court up towards the 10th row of seats or so. Lavalier (ECM55) sticking through the gasket on the backboard behind each basket. 816 on each handheld camera. 416 on each stanchion pointing at the foul line or top of the key.
Make 1 Announce group and copy it for each separate mix you will do. (Stereo, 5.1, mono). 1 Stereo Action Group for mics on the field. 1 Ambient Group for other "effects" mics. 1 surround mics group.
1 group for Music, 1 for Video Tape and 1 for Special Effect noises.
Separate effects send for the LFE feed.
Separate compressors for each group, Create 5.1 groups from your basic groups as required. It is not perfect, but if you have to make 3 mixes simultaneously, you will need to use stems, otherwise you will find things difficult to manage.
