chicago – Chicago will get a new sports network this fall to broadcast Blackhawks, Bulls and White Sox games to more fans.
Chicago Sports Network (CHSN) will launch in October across multiple platforms, according to White Sox and Bulls Media Affairs.
CHSN plans to offer more than 300 live Blackhawks, Bulls and Sox games annually, along with pre- and post-game coverage, and 24/7 multi-sport programming. The network will broadcast from studios at the United Center and Guaranteed Rate Square.
The launch will begin with the Blackhawks and Bulls preseason games. The first CHSN White Sox game will air in 2025. All remaining 2024 White Sox games will continue to air on NBC Sports Chicago.
The new network is a joint venture between the three teams and Standard Media. CSHN is created to reach the widest possible audience.
“As we set out to design the network, we began and ended every discussion with the simple question: What is best for our fans?” said Jason Coyle, who has been appointed president of the network. “What is the best approach to distribution? How can we push the boundaries of in-game and studio production? We plan to serve our fans on as many platforms and in as many markets as our rights allow.”
Standard Media owns four stations from the East Coast to Nebraska. CHSN is still in the early stages and will provide further updates as they become available.
