12: Broadcasting Update - It's Happening!

from Take A Seat · host Heidi and Nicole

Today’s mini episode is a broadcasting update for sitting volleyball at the Paralympics! As discussed in episode 11, the first 3 days of the sitting volleyball competition were not included in the broadcast plan decided on by Paris 2024. CBC Sports went to bat for sitting volleyball, and Team Canada at large, to acquire the rights from OBS (Olympic Broadcasting Services) in order to stream our first 2 matches. We don't know the specific in's and out's, but we know we are VERY grateful for the support and behind the scenes magic. Listen in as we say thank you and discuss our hopes for Paralympic broadcasting in the future! Link to CBC Sports' streaming schedule: today:https://www.cbc.ca/sports/streaming-schedule?sport=Sitting+Volleyball As far as we know, all other sitting volleyball countries will not have their games streamed the first 3 days. We can't wait for the day that we aren't even having this conversation. If you'd like to continue supporting, you can e-mail OBS and tell them how much you'd like to see ALL sitting volleyball (and ALL Paralympic sports) covered for their ENTIRE competitions!
