Sports Radio Network's partnership with the NWBL began in 2002. With its exclusive live presentation of the 2002 league draft and the spring's NWBL Pro Cup Tournament, Sports Radio Network reached a nationwide audience of fans, validating the rapidly growing appeal of women's professional basketball and the NWBL.
This year, Sports Radio Network was once again home to the 2003 NWBL Draft and the station also expanded its coverage to feature regular season games.
"Having live coverage of the tournament is important for the league to continue its growth," said NWBL Executive Officer Patrick Alexander. "Taking advantage of new technologies like internet broadcasting on Sports Radio Network is a testament to the commitment we have made to bring our games to the fans."
Sports Radio Network, a full service broadcasting outlet for amateur and professional sports, is a leader in web-based sports programming.
With Rob Goldenberg handling play-by-play duties and Alon Avital providing color commentary, the broadcasts have proven to be a reliable method of following the games with an entertaining team of broadcasters. The live broadcast, along with insightful interviews with coaches and players, give NWBL fans an opportunity to hear the games from any location in the world.
