Fair Game is the debut extended play (EP) by Australian rock band The Sports, released independently in 1977 and limited to 500 copies. It was produced by Joe Camilleri.[1]

A copy of the EP made it to the UK rock publication New Musical Express who wasted no time in pronouncing it their "Record of the Week", which led to the group being signed to Mushroom Records in Australia.[2]

All four tracks were included on the 2014 remastered and expanded 2-CD reissue of Reckless.
