Sports Radio Network to Webcast 2004 NWBL Pro-Cup Tournament on Pay-Per-Hear Basis

Available on pay-per-hear: $2.95 for a day pass or $5.00 for a tournament pass

Sports Radio Network (WSRN), the official broadcast partner of The National Women's Basketball League (NWBL), will once again be home to the Pro Cup tournament, which will emanate from The University of Texas at Dallas in Texas.

The internet-based station will webcast select games from the 2004 tournament on a pay-per-hear basis, beginning with semifinal action on March 31st. Sports Radio Network will also present live and exclusive coverage of the consolation and 2004 NWBL championship games on April 1st. Each game will be preceded by a 15 minute pre-game show.

Each webcast, which will be available on a pay-per-hear basis and cost $2.95 for a day pass or $5.00 for a tournament pass, can be accessed from Sports Radio Network's official website at http://www.sportsradionet.com. Archived games will also be available on demand following the completion of the tournament.

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, and continued in 2003 again with the leagues draft and Pro-Cup Tournament.

This year, Sports Radio Network was once again home to the 2004 NWBL Draft and the station also webcasted the leagues first ever All-Star Game in Ft. Collins, Colorado.

Sports Radio Network's coverage reached a nationwide audience of fans, validating the rapidly growing appeal of women's professional sports.

"Sports Radio Network's coverage has become a fixture for the league," said NWBL Executive Officer Patrick Alexander. "We are excited to try the concept of pay-per-hear for this years pro-cup. We know that there is a rabid following for NWBL basketball and are anxious to continue to provide fans the best in the way of coverage."

Sports Radio Network, a full service broadcasting outlet for amateur and professional sports, has already gained recognition as a leader in web-based sports programming.

WSRN burst on to the scene in the spring of 2001 with live and exclusive coverage of the United States Basketball League’s (USBL) Long Island Surf franchise. Following its presentation of 13 regular season games, the station carried the summer’s USBL post-season tournament.


Once again in 2002, WSRN was the exclusive home to the USBL Post-Season Festival, with fans in more than 15 countries; including Canada, Israel, Australia, France, Great Britain, Switzerland and Belgium listening to the webcasts. Not only did Sports Radio Network provide audio coverage of the post-season festival via the internet, and were used by Pegasys Video of Enid, Oklahoma for their highly-heralded television broadcasts. Recently clips of the tournament were aired on HBO’s Real Sports.

As part of its exclusive coverage of the 2003 New York Collegiate Athletic Conference's women's and men's basketball championship games, Sports Radio Network partnered with T & D Sports Video Productions merging the technology of the internet with that of television presenting live audio coverage via the internet, as well as distributing the games throughout the tri-state area for a tape-delayed television presentation.

This past season, Sports Radio Network again partnered with T & D Sports Video Productions to present The High School Football Game of the Week. A six-game television package, which was aired on Cablevision of Long Island on a tape-delay basis, and webcasted live via the internet (audio only) was produced.

"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.
