../sports.html
the ".." means "up one directory level".
Or you can use /sports.html, and then it will look for your main page in the root directory.
I advise on the 1st one, because you might want to put everything in another directory, and you'll lose the paths if you use the 2nd method... Always use relative paths (1st method) other absolute paths (2nd method) when possible.
the entire link would then be <a href= "../sports.html"> link to main sports page </a>

If your directory system looks something like this:
\ --+--sports.html
+--cricket----cricket.html
write on "sports.html": <a href="cricket/cricket.html>---</a>
and on "cricket.html": <a href="../sports.html>...</a>
\ --+--sports.html
+--cricket----cricket.html
write on "sports.html": <a href="cricket/cricket.html>---</a>
and on "cricket.html": <a href="../sports.html>...</a>
../sport.html
