The U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC), in partnership with NBCUniversal and FAST studios, today announced the launch of Team USA TV, a free ad-supported (FAST) TV channel showcasing the incredible stories of Team USA athletes and their journey to represent Team USA at the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
This collaboration gives fans an unparalleled place to learn more about the athletes and iconic Olympic and Paralympic moments as you follow the live action from Paris across NBCUniversal linear and digital streaming platforms.
“In addition to supporting NBCUniversal’s wonderful Olympic and Paralympic broadcasts from Paris, Team USA TV will serve as a year-round home for Team USA athletes to share their stories, and for fans to follow the journeys of the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic team athletes.” said Katie Bynum Aznavorian, Chief Strategy & Growth Officer, U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee. “This partnership with NBC and Fast Studios extends coverage of Team USA in between the Games, fueling fans’ interest to get access to the diverse personalities and gritty performances that make up Team USA as they work every day to drive their personal performance forward and represent the United States in competition.”
