MyHome Team from DIRECTV Offers Local Sports Fans the Option to Add an Expanding Portfolio of Regional Sports Channels

37 of America’s Local MLB, NBA, and NHL franchises are available through MyHome Team at launch, with access to more regional services and teams in additional metro areas soon.

The introduction of MyHome Team builds upon the early success of DIRECTV’s recently launched MySports Genre Pack, the industry-first sports-centric genre-based video offering. This new live-action Mini-Pack add-on, available exclusively to MySports customers, gives sports fans the option to watch their local MLB, NBA, NHL, and other teams.

MyHome Team continues to expand DIRECTV’s lead as the most prolific provider of MLB baseball to local fans and arrives in time for the upcoming Major League Baseball season.

“MyHome Team delivers unmatched flexibility and control for a local sports enthusiast to tune in and watch their teams whenever they want, whether that’s all season long or during portions of the season,” said Vince Torres, chief marketing officer at DIRECTV. “With industry-leading features like Sports Mode, Game Time Notifications, Pre-Game Stats and Live Scores included, DIRECTV customers can stream their local team satellite-free and never miss a play.”

MyHome Team draws from an initial portfolio of 20 regional sports networks or team-specific channels to offer fans access to games of the respective MLB, NBA, or NHL teams available in their market. At launch, MyHome Team will include games for 37 professional teams—12 MLB, 15 NBA, and 10 NHL. DIRECTV expects to continue expanding MyHome Team’s availability into other major metro areas by adding more regional sports networks and dedicated team channels soon.

In addition to the local team games specific to their regions, MyHome Team provides fans access to news and commentary from teams outside their territory.

MyHome Team is available at directvstream.com for $19.99/month as an add-on for MySports customers in select markets. Consumers can enter their zip code in the directvstream.com lookup tool to find the individual teams available in their area through MyHome Team.
