CNN Philippines Sports Desk (formerly Solar SportsDesk, or simply Sports Desk) is a 30-minute Philippine sports news television program broadcast by CNN Philippines. It is CNN Philippines' go-to program for all-sports news, specials, and interviews with sports personalities here and around the world, hosted by sports journalist Mico Halili on primetime and Andrei Felix on weekday mornings (also a sports anchor on CNN Philippines New Day and Newsroom 8AM Edition). In its latest format, Sports Desk airs thrice every weekdays and weeknights, a morning edition at 11am, a primetime edition at 7pm and another at the usual 10pm timeslot. A weekend edition was launched on March 11, 2017, alongside Newsroom Weekend, and follows the newscast every Saturdays at 12:30PM PST, with Halili and Felix as anchors.
Sports Desk was first broadcast on cable TV channel Solar Sports from 2004-2007 and returned on Solar News Channel by December 3, 2012, with a simulcast on Solar Sports until August 2014 following SNC's rebrand as 9TV.
As part of the expansion, Sports Desk also serves as a sports segment on some CNN Philippines newscasts. However, when major rolling news stories break across their timeslots, Sports Desk would either interrupt or pre-empt its normal broadcast.
