Internatio­nal Marathons Live on Kwesé Free Sports

-

The 24-hour local sports TV station, Kwesé Free Sports UHF 32, will air three major internatio­nal marathons in the month of April.

The Rotterdam Marathon on Sunday played host to thousands of runners from home and abroad.

Kwesé Free Sports UHF 32 will also broadcast the world’s oldest annual marathon and one of the most prestigiou­s road racing events, The Boston Marathon which comes up on Monday 16 April.

The athletic spectacle takes a winding route through the city, encompassi­ng 26 miles of Boston’s streets and providing many opportunit­ies to see the action. The marathon has become a symbol of the Boston community, and of endurance and team spirit. Kick-off time is 2pm local time.

The annual marathon race over the classic distance of 42.195km in Hamburg, Germany will also air on Kwesé Free Sports UHF 32 on 29 April 2018.

This road racing event has been described as Germany’s biggest spring marathon and has been on since 1986.

“To watch these internatio­nal road racing events, viewers simply need to tune their television sets to UHF 32 on analogue television in Lagos. This means that they do not need a satellite TV decoder to watch the marathons”.

Kwesé Free Sports UHF 32 had in February broadcast the Access Bank Lagos City Marathon. The channel is also the exclusive free-to-air broadcaste­r of the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia. Viewers of this free premium sports channel will be able to watch 32 live matches of the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia.

Kwesé Free Sports UHF 32 a part of the largest and only pan-African Free-to-Air (FTA) network available in more than 24 countries in Africa.
