05/07/21: NBC Sports is partnering with Twitch for Olympic content

 

Medias First Morning Read

 

Friday May 7, 2021

NBC Olympics is tapping Twitch to produce and deliver live content that will live on a new NBC Olympics Twitch channel for the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, delivering “unique programming tailored to the Twitch community,” including highlight studio shows, game-ified pre-Olympic activations, Olympic athlete interviews and Olympic-themed gaming competitions. The first interactive experience on Twitch begins the week leading up to the Olympics before the Opening Ceremony. Twitch creators and their communities will work together to “keep the Torch alive” on the NBC Olympics Twitch channel. Viewers of the torch streams will need to work together to collect items and participate in chat to fan the flame and finally “Light the Cauldron” on the day of the Opening Ceremony.

NBC Olympics and Twitch will also host a pre-Opening Ceremony party featuring Olympic-themed segments from top creators, all taking place in an innovative virtual setting. This event will lead into the Olympics-themed content on the NBC Olympics Channel and offer daily, unique Twitch-produced content such as a daily interactive clip show, daily competition among three teams of Twitch creators, primetime sidecasting and a Live From Tokyo segment.

“We are thrilled to collaborate with Twitch on innovative ways to tell the stories of Team USA’s athletes in Tokyo and build Olympic excitement with their audience,” said Gary Zenkel, President, NBC Olympics. “The Olympic Games are perfectly aligned with Twitch consumers, who are passionate about great competition, personality and storytelling. We can’t wait to bring the unmatched moments and stories of the Olympics to Twitch’s interactive community.”

“The way that people consume traditional sporting events is changing. They no longer want to simply spectate; they want to be as close to the action and athletes as possible. We’ve seen this firsthand with the growth of our sports community on Twitch, as viewers tune in not only to watch their favorite athletes but to also take part in pre and post-game interviews and virtually connect with other fans from around the world,” said Michael Aragon, Chief Content Officer at Twitch. “The Olympics present an opportunity for a global fan base to embrace this new world of live and interactive sports. We are thrilled to partner with NBC to give fans in the United States an intimate, front row seat to this iconic sporting event and connect American athletes and fans in a way that can only happen on Twitch.”

Do terms used by TV analysts go over your head? You’re not alone. Most viewers couldn’t differentiate between a free safety and a strong safety or explain a nickel defense. Yet these same uninitiated bet regularly. Analysts rarely explain the basics. They should!
Ex-athletes and coaches who are now broadcast analysts assume fans know the jargon – They’re wrong
