sports calendars not showing

I select various sports teams, but their schedules don't show in my calendar. Does this no longer work. I even got an email on the new outlook where it promotes this. I used to have a college football team, an MLB team and another team in my calendar, (and yes, the checkbox is selected), but no schedule appears... I even tried to import from the college teams website with a url link and Outlook wouldn't accept it.

Here's the email I received today, promoting this feature, which isn't working...

Outlook | Windows | New Outlook for Windows | For home

    Agree, definitely a first world problem. But just very annoyed. 2 or 3 years ago they had another issue where the game times weren't accurate to the timezone one was living in. So when a game was supposed to start at 10 am, it would show some completely different time. I just don't get how difficult this is. Like once it is mapped, why doesn't it just continue working? I follow MLS. Game times were showing up for the majority of the season and then in like July or August they disappeared. Like I said, annoyed more than anything especially when their competitors have zero issues.

    I am experiencing the same issue when looking to add a sports team that there are no sport teams displayed. I've read thru the posts and do not see any recent comments or updates from Microsoft. Only the option of using gmail.

    Microsoft, please provide an updated if reviewing these comments.

    Seems to be a good workaround. I was able to add all my sports teams to my Google calendar, but can't figure out how to get that calendar added to my Outlook 365 Calendar. How specifically do you add it? Appreciate the help.

    (I've given up on waiting for Microsoft)

    I agree with all the comments here. MS are aware (if for no other reason than I made them aware) and that's why they've pulled the 'feature'. I just think their testing and support is very shoddy and their communication on new or withdrawn features.

    Had to look up PITA (:-) but agree there are more serious things going on in the world. I have a Gmail account, but don't feel too confident with cross-streaming fixes. We shouldn't have to.

    I'll wait to see what MS do (and when!).

    Cheers,

    PK.

    I added my Google Calendar as an external calendar. (Like a holiday calendar)
