CW Network and PBA Ink Multi-Year Broadcast Deal Starting 2026
The CW Network has secured a multi-year broadcast agreement with the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA). From 2026, The CW will broadcast ten live professional bowling events annually in two-hour slots on consecutive Sunday afternoons, making the sport more accessible nationwide.
The PBA, founded in 1958, features star athletes including 3-time Player of the Year EJ Tackett, 7-time Player of the Year Jason Belmonte, and major champions Kyle Troup and Anthony Simonsen, known for their dynamic styles and personalities.
This addition joins The CW’s expanding sports portfolio, which includes the NASCAR Xfinity Series (averaging over one million viewers per race in 2025), ACC and Pac-12 college football, Grand Slam Track events, and AVP professional beach volleyball.
A complete viewing schedule will be announced later.
