Our recommended settings are in red. These settings won't throw you off of your game, and it will help you navigate or look through the field more easily.

Also note that you also have the option to turn off seeing Stamps from other players.

Pro League Recommended Settings

Nintendo Switch Sports - Pro League Settings

Once you enter the Pro League in any sport, your rank will be affected each time you win or lose a match. If you want to pause this and play a sport more casually, you can head to the Pro League Settings screen and Play or Pause Pro.

We recommend always keeping these options on pause unless you are actively trying to raise your rank.

Alternate Color Mode

Nintendo Switch Sports - Settings Alternate Color Mode

Alternate Color Mode changes the palette of the game slightly to assist those with color blindness. We only recommend turning this on if you are color blind.
