The Chicago Sports Network (CHSN) is set to launch in October, offering live games of the Chicago Blackhawks, Bulls, and White Sox to a wide audience across multiple platforms. With over 300 live games annually, CHSN will provide top-notch pre-and-post game coverage along with 24/7 multisport programming.
CHSN will kick off its launch in October with Blackhawks and Bulls preseason games, with the first White Sox game scheduled for 2025. In the meantime, NBC Sports Chicago will continue to broadcast the remaining 2024 White Sox games. A joint venture of the three teams and Standard Media, CHSN aims to expand its reach across the Midwest, pending league approvals. The network has already secured agreements with cable providers, streaming services, and will also be available for free over-the-air broadcast.
Jason Coyle, named president of CHSN, emphasized the network’s commitment to putting fans first in all decisions. With a focus on maximizing distribution and production quality, CHSN aims to serve fans on various platforms and in multiple markets. Standard Media’s expertise in negotiating distribution deals will play a crucial role in expanding CHSN’s reach.
As CHSN continues to build its team, further announcements will be made throughout the summer as distribution and other agreements are finalized. Updates will also be available on CHSN.com for fans to stay informed about the network’s progress.
