Sports often gets watched with lights on, people spread across a room and large bright fields on screen. That creates a distinct projector-screen use case.
Prioritize wide seating
Family rooms and watch parties benefit from predictable off-axis brightness. A wide listed viewing angle can be valuable, but test the far-left and far-right seats because directional ALR behavior still varies.
Bright fields expose artifacts
Football pitches, ice rinks and skies can make laser speckle or screen texture easier to see than dark cinematic content. Triple-laser owners should test those exact scenes on any candidate material.
Ambient light is normal
If you watch afternoon sport with windows open, ALR can be more relevant than in a dedicated movie room. Just remember that direct sunlight remains difficult for any projector.
The NothingProjector fit
NothingProjector's long-throw material is marketed with 95% ALR and a 170° viewing angle, which aligns with the bright-room/wide-seating sports use case on paper. A material sample is the sensible way to see whether your specific projector shows speckle.
Test the material before committing to a full-size screen.
