REGINA – NFL Network, the 24/7 all National Football League channel, was launched this week by Access Communications.
Access customers in Regina with a digital cable package will automatically receive NFL Network on channel 98 at no additional cost.
This is in addition to the three Rogers Sportsnet regional channels and 40 commercial-free music channels the co-operative’s digital customers already enjoy at no charge, says the company’s release.
"Sports fans are a passionate group – especially football fans. When NFL Network launched in the U.S. in 2003, we immediately heard from our customers that this was a channel they wanted and we delivered," said Access vice-president, marketing Rick Fraser. "Now that the channel has been licensed for distribution in Canada and made available to us through our signal supplier, we are very pleased to be able to not only offer it – but to include it at no additional charge to our digital customers."
Access is the latest in a line of Canadian distributors to add the channel.
