SNY, the television home of the Mets, Jets and all things New York sports, is now home of New York City's first professional rugby franchise, Rugby United New York (RUNY).
RUNY is set to join Major League Rugby after the league's launch this year with seven teams, with home games being played at MCU Park on Coney Island.
"The partnership with SNY is a big moment for rugby in New York," said RUNY GM James English. "Delivering our games to our fans on a major platform that reaches 11 million homes, promoted with other major sports in the region, has been a huge goal of ours and we are thrilled to put RUNY on the map in this deal."
SNY will televise nine games of RUNY's inaugural season, with the first game airing Sunday, Jan. 27 at 5 p.m.
