NBL to air on 10 Bold – The relationship between the NBL and Network 10 is set to grow, with the 4:30pm Sunday game to be broadcast live and in high definition on 10 BOLD this season.
It follows the exciting announcement of the NBL’s return to a main free-to-air channel for the first time in a decade, with the 2:30pm marquee Sunday game to be broadcast on Channel 10 in high definition.
The addition of the 10 BOLD game at 4:30pm means Sunday double-headers will be available to more Australians and basketball lovers, as Network 10 remains the free-to-air home of the NBL.
“Network 10 have been tremendous partners of our League, and we are thrilled to see that commitment and trust in our game continue with the addition of the 10 BOLD games on Sunday afternoon,”
– NBL Chief Strategic Partnerships and Investment Officer Brad Joyner said.
“This is yet another sign of major validation in the League’s growth and direction, and we look forward to another strong campaign of expanding the NBL’s footprint across Australia.
“I want to thank Network 10’s Beverley McGarvey, and her entire team, for their continued support in the NBL and can’t wait to see Sunday’s double-headers come to life.”
Adam Cush, Sport Production Director, Paramount Australia and New Zealand said:
“We are thrilled to expand our partnership with the NBL by broadcasting a second match every week on 10 BOLD and 10 Play.
“Ensuring broad reach on free-to-air, we are committed to showcasing the NBL in innovative ways and exposing it to a plethora of programming opportunities across all our platforms.”
