TORONTO – CBC Sports and the International Swimming League (ISL) today announced a new partnership agreement to provide broadcast and streaming coverage of the ISL 2020 regular season, semi-finals and final.
CBC Sports will stream every match on cbcsports.ca, the CBC Sports app for iOS and Android, provide broadcast coverage of select events on Road to the Olympic Games on CBC and the free CBC Gem streaming service.

This year, 10 teams from around the world will battle for the championship title, including the Toronto Titans who will be representing Canada for the first time.
