NBCUniversal has announced that its new NBC Sports Network (NBCSN), a 24/7 linear network featuring a range of sporting events and programming from NBC Sports, will officially launch in the US on November 17th.

NBCSN will be available exclusively through participating pay-TV distributors, launching first for all YouTube TV subscribers and soon on Xfinity, with other distributors to be announced in the near future. NBCSN will give pay-TV customers a way to watch much of NBCUniversal’s sports portfolio that also streams on Peacock.

“NBCUniversal delivers the biggest moments in sports, and the new NBC Sports Network gives pay-tv customers a seamless way to enjoy the wide range of sports in our portfolio, adding an important pillar in our linear and streaming strategy,” commented Matt Schnaars, President, Platform Distribution and Partnerships, NBCUniversal. “NBCSN is a win across the board – driving value for fans and distributors who prefer an aggregated experience, league and conference partners seeking broad reach, and advertisers targeting engaged sports audiences – while also creating a new monetisation path for some of our most premium programming and supporting NBCU’s commitment to serving viewers wherever they watch, whether on Peacock, pay-TV, or both.”

Events and programming on the new NBC Sports Network include:

• Monday Night NBA games and NBA Playoffs
• Expected to include dozens of MLB regular-season and select post-season games in a soon-to-be-announced agreement
