While CHEK will carry all LFL Canada games, the network’s focus will be in centered its home market LFL Canada franchise, the BC Angels. CHEK will have a presence at Angels home games at Abbotsford Entertainment & Sports Centre as well as track the team’s inaugural season development through player features and team reports.

The LFL is expected to announce another Canadian broadcaster to include carriage across the remaining territories in Canada.

Now if CHEK could get a non-WWE wrestling show or two, the station could become a Saturday night destination for sports entertainment the way KSTW was with its Saturday night wrestling lineup in the '80s, and like KOMO was with the original American Gladiators when that show was first on.  8)
