ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - The Atlanta Vibe – the city’s newest professional sports team – has their first local television partner in Peachtree Sports Network (WPCH 17.2). Today the organizations announced the schedule of Vibe matches that will air locally, beginning with this Thursday’s match against the Orlando Valkyries on March 21.
“This partnership will provide another opportunity for Atlantans to cheer on their city’s newest professional sports team and turn our athletes into household names across the Southeast,” said Colleen Craig, owner of the Atlanta Vibe. “The energy and excitement felt in Gas South Arena during Vibe home matches translates so well over television, and we’re thankful to Peachtree TV and Gray Television for giving our team the platform to showcase that experience to an even larger audience.”
“We are thrilled to bring pro volleyball into Atlanta homes,” Atlanta News First and Peachtree TV VP/GM Erik Schrader said. “Atlanta’s newest pro team is now on Atlanta’s only live, local sports network, and that’s a win for us, a win for the Vibe, and a win for Atlanta sports fans.”
Longtime Atlanta sports play-by-play broadcaster Andy Demetra and veteran volleyball analyst Kele Eveland will continue to call the Vibe’s home matches throughout the 2024 season.
Peachtree Sports Network (PSN) launched in October 2023 as Atlanta’s new home for Live Local Sports. PSN is available in Atlanta over the air on channel 17.2, and on Spectrum, Xfinity, and YouTube TV. PSN also broadcasts over the air in Albany, Augusta, Columbus, Macon, and Savannah, Georgia.
