Sportsnet One (stylized Sportsnet ONE or SN ONE) is a Canadian English-language Category C digital cable and satellite specialty channel that is owned by Rogers Media; it operates as a national sports channel complementing the Sportsnet group of regional sports networks. In addition to the national feed, the service operates a number of additional part-time "companion channels" which carry programming restricted to the local broadcast territories of the teams involved, such that the main feed remains available nationwide.
According to Rogers, Sportsnet One is available in 6.1 million Canadian homes.
Licensed by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) in March 2010 under the name Rogers' Mainstream Sports Specialty Service, it was launched at 12:00 p.m. ET on August 14, 2010 as Rogers Sportsnet One in standard definition and high definition. The service was renamed Sportsnet One on October 3, 2011 as part of the rebranding of Rogers Media's Sportsnet-branded channels.
On April 8, 2016, a 4K version of Sportsnet One launched on Rogers Cable and Bell Fibe TV.
When it launched, exclusive content promoted for broadcast on Sportsnet One included selected Toronto Blue Jays games, certain Premier League soccer games.
In current practice, the channel serves mainly as a secondary outlet for live events for which Sportsnet owns Canadian rights, but cannot air on its primary regional channels, as well as the main outlet for lower-rated sports such as cycling, tennis, and skiing. It is also occasionally used to simulcast national events that are only carried across some of the primary regional channels due to scheduling conflicts with regional broadcasts.
