SBS will broadcast the launch season of the ProVelo Super League (PSL) live, providing Australian cycling fans with extensive coverage of the new domestic road cycling league.
As Australia’s home of cycling, SBS will deliver a comprehensive viewing experience for
audiences throughout the PSL’s debut season.
Cycling fans will be able to watch the ‘Road to the World Tour’ live free to air on SBS, SBS VICELAND, and SBS On Demand. Replays, extensive highlights and behind-the-scenes content will be available on SBS On Demand and ProVelo Super League's digital channels.
ProVelo Super League will be on SBS screens in 2025.
PSL Founder Matt Wilson said “This is an important milestone for the PSL. We committed to creating a season format that would be attractive to broadcasters, allow us to build a
narrative that will be engaging for cycling fans and we genuinely believe sport fans more
broadly will enjoy watching live PSL action across the Australian summer.
“We’re committed to doing things differently, adding new elements and features to the
broadcast product that we believe sport fans will enjoy and we really want to support the
profile development of our up-and-coming stars as they prepare for bigger goals on the
world stage.”
Wilson added “with Jacyo AlUla and Liv AlUla WorldTour stagiaire and development team
contracts on the line for the men’s and women’s winner of the Under 23 category, the racing is going to be super competitive with the raised stakes which will make for an exciting and very engaging broadcast product as our young Aussie’s compete against international riders for a WorldTour opportunity”.
SBS Director of Sport, Ken Shipp said: “SBS is Australia’s home of cycling, and we’re
excited to bring audiences the launch season of the ProVelo Super League. With Australians standing tall on podiums at the World’s biggest races, Aussie cycling is in great form.
Audiences can catch the next wave of home-grown champions in action during the ProVelo Super League, with live racing on SBS, SBS VICELAND, and SBS On Demand.”
The inaugural PSL Season will commence in January 2025 and conclude in Queensland in
late March. Following the announcement earlier this week of the all-new Harbour City GP
event to be hosted in Sydney on March 7–9, further PSL event announcements will be made in coming days.
