| − | '''Sun Sports''' (sometimes referred to on-air as '''Fox's Sun Sports''') is a [[Florida]] [[sports broadcasting]] network, with its headquarters in [[Orlando, Florida|Orlando]]. Launched in 1988 as '''Sunshine Network''', the station is now affiliated with virtually every cable company throughout the state of Florida and can be picked up by some satellite providers around the [[United States]]. |
||
| − | Sunshine Network changed its name to Sun Sports in 2004 to reflect its sports-focused programming. Originally an affiliate of [[Prime Network]], it was acquired with the rest of Prime by [[Fox Sports Net]] in 1995. |

||
| − | ==Programming== |
||
| − | Sun Sports airs professional, collegiate and high school sporting events. It offers split feeds for the state's regions. Along with sister network [[Fox Sports Florida]] it is the cable home to the [[NBA]]'s [[Orlando Magic]] and [[Miami Heat]], the [[NHL]]'s [[Tampa Bay Lightning]], and [[MLB]]'s [[Tampa Bay Rays]]. In addition the channel offers baseball, basketball, football, and other sporting events from [[University of Florida]], [[Florida State University]], and the SEC. Longtime partnered with FSU & UF, Sun Sports produces all regular season football games for both schools and airs them statewide on a next-day delay basis. The network also has the rights to the FHSAA Football and Basketball Finals. |

||
| − | Through Sun Sports, South Florida can view Miami Heat basketball, as Central and Northern Florida can view Orlando Magic basketball. Ultimately however, Sun Sports and Fox Sports Florida are sister channels, and games can air on either channel depending on who is playing at what time (particularly with the Marlins and [[Tampa Bay Rays|Rays]], since both teams routinely play at the same time). The two channels do not focus on one region of Florida (it was long rumored that Sun Sports would carry only the North/Central Florida teams, while Fox Sports Florida would carry Miami-area teams) so that the Lightning, Heat, Marlins, Magic,<ref>Magic to move 35 games to FSN Florida http://capefish.blogspot.com/2007/08/magic-move-35-games-to-fsn-florida.html</ref> and [[Florida Panthers]] are all cable-exclusive. |
