Sports Radio Network is attempting to capitalize on the growing popularity of web-based sports programming.
Already the exclusive broadcast partner of the National Women's Basketball League (NWBL), Sports Radio Network will present live coverage of the leagues' Pro Cup Tournament March 26-28th.

Sports Radio Network has also partnered with the United States Basketball League. After webcasting 13 regular season games, for the league's Long Island Surf franchise, WSRN presented exclusive live coverage of the 2001 USBL Championship tournament from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

This past year, WSRN also introduced High School Football to its schedule webcasting regular season and playoff games from Long Island, New York.

Dedicated to the production and broadcasting of high quality live sporting events and other sports entertainment, Sports Radio Network is unique in that it targets professional and high school teams that have limited radio and television exposure.
"I feel that there is a legitimate niche that we can fill. By utilizing the technology the internet offers teams can take advantage of a practically limitless audience," said Goldenberg.
