Historically, CTV Sports existed as a stand-alone division; with CTV's purchase of cable network [[The Sports Network|TSN]] in 2001, TSN has assumed responsibility for all sports output on CTV since.

In early 2005, CTV was part of the consortium that won the Canadian broadcast rights to Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics hosted by Canada itself and the [[2012 Summer Olympics|London 2012 Summer Olympics]]. CBC had consistently won Olympic broadcast rights from the [[1996 Summer Olympics]] through to the [[2008 Summer Olympics]], the [[1996 Summer Olympics]] being held in their main fiction TV series source, the United States. CTV and V (now [[Noovo]] and previously TQS) were the primary broadcasters, with [[The Sports Network|TSN]], [[Réseau des sports|RDS]] and [[Sportsnet]] providing supplementary coverage. CTV promised to broadcast 22 hours per day of event coverage during the 2012 Olympics; regular CTV programming was reallocated to CTV's secondary television system CTV Two during the Olympics.

On May 22, 2007, it was announced that CTV had acquired the broadcast rights to the [[National Football League]] early-afternoon Sunday games, the full NFL playoffs, and the [[Super Bowl]], starting with the [[2007 NFL season]],<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.tsn.ca/ctvnews/sportsstory.asp?story_id=208530 |title=CTV.ca {{!}} CTV News, Shows and Sports – Canadian Television<!-- Bot generated title --> |access-date=December 7, 2017 |archive-date=February 10, 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080210173951/http://www.tsn.ca/ctvnews/sportsstory.asp?story_id=208530 |url-status=dead }}</ref> effectively ending a lengthy association between the NFL and [[Global Television Network|Global]]. TSN, a sports channel co-owned with CTV, airs primetime NFL games and produces the CTV broadcasts in tandem with [[CBS]] and [[Fox Broadcasting Company|Fox]].

During the [[2024 CFL season]], CTV exclusively aired 7 CFL games during Saturday afternoons in the Fall. CTV also simulcast the Eastern Semi-final, the Eastern Final and the [[111th Grey Cup]] with [[The Sports Network|TSN]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.cfl.ca/2024/09/06/fall-is-in-the-air-the-cfl-on-ctv-is-here/ |title=Fall is in the Air: The CFL on CTV is here |access-date=February 2, 2024 |date=September 6, 2024|website=CFL }}</ref>
