Upcoming Triumph Match to be Broadcast Locally

August 3, 2020 - United Soccer League One (USL1) - Greenville Triumph SC News Release


Greenville, SC - The Greenville Triumph have entered into partnership with WSPA and WYCW to locally broadcast the club's upcoming match on Saturday, August 15 versus Chattanooga. The match, which marks the first appearance for the Triumph on local television, will air across the Upstate, north Georgia and western North Carolina on The CW, channel 62.

With the Triumph unable to host fans for their home opener, and the likelihood of a limited capacity if fans are allowed back in 2020, the broadcast will allow fans and supporters of the club to view a match from the comfort and safety of their homes without needing to access the subscription-based ESPN+ platform.

"Given the limitations around fan attendance this season, it was a top priority for us to find other avenues for people to watch our matches," said Triumph chairman Joe Erwin. "Partnering with WSPA/WCYW is an exciting way for us to show this match and promote our club to thousands across the region for the first time."

"We are proud to partner with The Greenville Triumph and help to bring the excitement of professional soccer to our community," said WSPA-TV & WYCW-TV vice president & general manager Kenny Lawrence. "We believe in supporting our local teams, and the ability to offer sports programming to our viewers is something we are honored to do."

The agreement also includes the potential to air additional Triumph matches in 2020. Greenville joins Forward Madison and the Richmond Kickers as USL League One clubs with local broadcast deals. All Triumph matches will continue to be available nationwide via streaming on ESPN+.
