Samsung TV Plus has announced that it has launched Pickleballtv (PBTV) on its free ad-supported streaming platform.
The launch of a new network covering America’s fastest-growing sport, with 36 million active players in the U.S., as of 2023, is also a milestone for Samsung’s streaming platform. Pickleballtv is its 350th free channel in the U.S.
The 24-hour media home of pickleball will show more than 30 top-level live PPA Tour tournaments (with teams whose owners include Tom Brady, Eva Longoria, and LeBron James), along with original programming and a weekly studio news show.
The channel is the latest sports offering from Tennis Channel and the Carvana Professional Pickleball Association (PPA Tour).
The Tennis Channel is owned by Sinclair.
