History

The channels were created in 2021 to be the home of the Saudi top football competitions and many other sports. SSC offered free broadcast to some of their channels by having the top commentators behind the paywall and new commentators in the free channels. In 2024, SSC announced that IMG will produce the Saudi Pro League, King's Cup, and Saudi Super Cup for the next 5 years. [2] On 14 June 2025, SSC lost the broadcasting rights of the Saudi competitions to the Thmanyah Company. [3] The channel was closed on 5 October 2025 and its broadcasting rights went to MBC Group.
