Bornholm's geography as an island and moderate climate makes Bornholm an ideal location for sailing and other water-based sports. Bornholm has also become an internationally recognised venue for 'match racing', a sailing sport where two identical yachts are raced in one-on-one events on the water. The [[Danish Open (yachting)|Danish Open]] event was held in Bornholm in September 2010 at the port town of Rønne on the western coast of Bornholm. The five-day Danish Open is a key event in the [[World Match Racing Tour]] calendar which is one of only 3 events awarded 'special event' status by the [[International Sailing Federation]]. The Tour is the world's leading professional 'match racing' series and features a nine-event calendar which crosses three continents during the series. Points accrued during the Danish Open contribute directly to the World Match Racing Tour championship with the winner of the season finale at the Monsoon Cup in Malaysia claiming the ultimate match racing title ISAF World Match Racing Champion.

There are two small stadiums: [[Nexø Stadion]], in [[Nexø]], where [[NB Bornholm]] [[association football]] club play; and the slightly larger multi-use stadium [[Rønne Stadion Nord]] in [[Rønne]], which serves the [[Non-FIFA international football|Bornholm national football team]], multi-section club most well known for [[sport of athletics|athletics]] IK Viking, and several local football clubs. The [[DBU Bornholm]] is the local branch governing football on the island.
