In a move that broadens its local sports programming strategy, Beasley Media Group has reached an agreement with the Tampa Bay Rowdies to carry all matches during the 2026 season on \u201cFlorida Alumni Radio\u201d WJBR Tampa (1010).<\/p>\n
Under the deal, the station will serve as the flagship station, airing both home and away contests from the USL Championship regular season and the Prinx Tires USL Cup. The broadcasts will also be heard on the FM Translators W221DW Tampa (92.1) and W276CX New Port Richey (103.1), extending the team\u2019s reach to a broader regional audience.<\/p>\n
The addition of Rowdies soccer further diversifies a lineup that already includes football and basketball broadcasts tied to University of South Florida and Florida State University athletics.<\/p>\n
For the Rowdies, the partnership represents a milestone in distribution. The club says the agreement ensures that, for the first time in franchise history, every match will be available to fans on both local television and radio. \u201cTampa Bay 44\u201d WTOG-TV has served as the team\u2019s exclusive TV partner since 2024.<\/p>\n
Broadcast continuity will also be a key component of the rollout. The radio side will feature the same on-air team as the television broadcasts, including play-by-play voice Drew Fellios, analyst and former Rowdies goalkeeper Jeff Attinella, and sideline reporter Diandra Loux.<\/p>\n
The partnership also extends beyond game broadcasts. Attinella recently launched the \u201cTampa Bay Rowdies Podcast,\u201d recorded at Beasley\u2019s St. Petersburg studios and distributed via the company\u2019s podcast network as well as platforms including Spotify, iHeartRadio and the team\u2019s YouTube channel. The weekly show features interviews with players and coaches, adding another layer of team-focused content to Beasley\u2019s growing digital portfolio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In a move that broadens its local sports programming strategy, Beasley Media Group has reached an agreement with…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":246230,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[3086,115,202,204,203,199,201,200],"class_list":{"0":"post-246229","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-st-petersburg","8":"tag-free","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-st-pete","11":"tag-st-pete-headlines","12":"tag-st-pete-news","13":"tag-st-petersburg","14":"tag-st-petersburg-headlines","15":"tag-st-petersburg-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246229","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=246229"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246229\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/246230"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=246229"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=246229"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=246229"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
