Sling TV expands college sport content
October 5, 2015
Sling TV will launch Campus Insiders, a Silver Chalice Ventures network, expanding its college sports programming. The new channel will provide access to hundreds of live college sporting events, including the inaugural NOVA Home Loans Arizona Bowl. Campus Insiders will be accessible on all devices supported by Sling TV as part of the $5 per month “Sports Extra” pack, available to customers who subscribe to the “Best of Live TV” core package.
“People flock to Sling TV for live sports and we have seen incredible viewership on sports channels every Saturday, as college football ramps up. Campus Insiders deepens our college sports offering with conferences that, until today, have been underserved when it comes to watching games live,” said Roger Lynch, CEO of Sling TV. “Everyone deserves the chance to root for their favourite team on the big screen, and we are proud to be the first to offer these fans that premium experience with Sling TV.”
“We are thrilled to join the growing sports lineup on Sling TV,” said Brooks Boyer, CEO of Silver Chalice. “With our commitment to covering the world of college sports and delivering the live games of our conference partners to a wider audience, Campus Insiders’ growth is a testament to the insatiable appetite of the more than 100 million Americans who call themselves college sports fans.”
