About

V Sport Ultra HD history, coverage, features

V Sport Ultra HD is a Swedish television channel owned and operated by the Nordic Entertainment Group. The channel was launched in 2020 to add depth to the network’s sports coverage. 

Over the years, V Sport Ultra HD has aired content for most of the disciplines the network has broadcasting rights to. Some of those disciplines have included football competitions, hockey, American football, basketball, golf, motorsports, and more. 

Since there are sports-specific channels in the V Sport network, V Sport Ultra has often been used as a mirror channel to some of those sister networks. Usually, the top sports event being aired on the network can be watched in Ultra HD format.

When it comes to football, V Sport Ultra HD has been involved in covering club competitions such as the Dutch Eredivisie, the French Ligue 1, the Danish First Division, the German Bundesliga, the English Premier League, and the Australian A-League. Cup tournaments such as the English League Cup and the English FA Cup have also found screen time on this channel. Furthermore, tournaments such as the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Europa League have also been covered on this network for many years.

V Sport Ultra HD was launched as an Ultra High-Definition feed. There are no downscaled versions of this channel, although some events may be available in a different format in some of V Sport Ultra HD’s sister networks.
