New MLS Season Means New Excitement and Kits

SOUNDERS ANNOUNCE BROADCAST SCHEDULE

Seattle Sounders FC announced its complete regional broadcast details for the 2022 Major League Soccer season. Fans of the club can continue to follow the Rave Green through one of the most diverse slates in Major League Soccer, as Seattle maintains its relationships with all of its existing regional television, streaming and radio partners.

“We are excited to continue working with all of our broadcast partners this season, including FOX 13 and FOX 13+, Prime Video, iHeartMedia Seattle and El Rey 1360 AM,” said Sounders FC Owner & President of Business Operations Peter Tomozawa.

“The dedication of these partners to providing unrivaled coverage and access across an array of platforms is a key ingredient to our ability to engage and connect with our fans. That connection is more important than ever in 2022, as Sounders FC kicks off the March to the 50^th – a two-year rallying cry for the team and fans as we approach the club’s 50^th anniversary in 2024. We have big plans on the horizon and we’re looking forward to collaborating with our broadcast partners as those plans come to life on and off the pitch.”

In regional television, the club’s home remains FOX 13 (KCPQ Channel 13) and FOX 13+ (KZJO cable 10 / Channel 22), seeing FOX 13+ return as the primary television home for regional broadcasts of the Rave Green throughout Western Washington for the fifth straight season.

All home and away Sounders FC matches for non-nationally televised broadcasts are available to in-market fans, with FOX 13 carrying four contests and FOX 13+ carrying the remainder of the schedule. FOX 13 and FOX 13+ continue to provide both a 30-minute pre-match show and 30-minute post-match wrap-up following each game.

FOX 13 is also carrying several Sounders FC specials during the 2022 season, including a Sounders FC Matchday program airing on FOX 13+ at 4:00 p.m. PT Sunday, February 27 ahead of the club’s opening MLS Regular Season match vs. Nashville SC. Additionally, FOX 13 is profiling the team during its weekly Seattle Sports Live sportscast, which airs Sundays at 11:00 p.m. PT on KCPQ following the flagship FOX 13 News at 10.

Dating back to the first year of the partnership between the Rave Green and KCPQ in 2014, Sounders FC’s regional broadcast ratings have led Major League Soccer each season, a hallmark of the continuing relationship between the two organizations.
