Spectrum Sports Packages
Wondering what Spectrum has for sports fans? In this guide, I highlight its sports channels and TV packages to help you prep for game day.
Looking at Spectrum TV® and wondering if they have what it takes for a real sports fan? I get it. Their basic plans might look a little bare bones at first glance, but don’t let that fool you. For us sports fanatics, Spectrum’s channel lineups actually offer a lot of value—especially when it comes to regional coverage. It’s just a matter of digging into the details to see what they’re really offering.
Of course, if you want to get all the channels, that price tag climbs faster than a shortstop running to first base. That’s why the key is determining which channels are in Spectrum’s sports packages and selecting the plan that best fits your budget. That’s where I come in. In this guide, I’ll give you a full scouting report on Spectrum’s channel lineups and add-ons so you can build the perfect, cost-effective game day setup.
Spectrum sports packages
Technically, Spectrum has only its TV Select Signature and TV Select Plus plans, but you can customize your TV setup during checkout with a variety of add-ons and out-of-market packages.
Most significantly, regional sports networks (RSN) are available as an upgrade option on TV Select Plus—you won’t have to pay extra for channels you don’t need if you’re primarily interested in national sports broadcasts. You’ll also be able to add additional à la carte channel packs during the checkout process.

Spectrum sports channels
Spectrum’s base TV Select Signature plan includes a strong mix of basic and premium sports channels. But if you want even more programming, you can upgrade to TV Select Plus or throw in Spectrum’s premium channel packs.
I’ve omitted cable channels that show sports and regular programming (like TBS, TNT, and truTV) from the table below, but they’re available on every Spectrum channel pack. Channel availability for regional networks like the ACC Network also varies by location.

Is Spectrum worth it for sports fans?
Spectrum offers a solid spread of sports channels for fans of any sport, although I wish that the provider didn’t make popular networks like FS2 and ESPNews exclusive to their channel packs. But overall, Spectrum’s pricing is solid, and I think it’ll be a great fit for sports and non-sports fans alike.
