History
The channel was launched on 24 March 2007 from Canal Digital, Get, Lyse and BKK.[1] In the autumn, it launched on the terrestrial RiksTV. From 22 March 2009 the channel will also be available from the Viasat satellite platform.[2]
The channel is a premium pay channel with a relatively high price (159 NOK per month, as of 2009). In addition to the main channel, it also offered four extra channels, TV 2 Sport 2, TV 2 Sport 3, TV 2 Sport 4 and TV 2 Sport 5, which allowed them to broadcast five matches at once. The extra channels were, however, not available terrestrially.
On 11 June 2010, TV 2 launched TV 2 Sport Premium (previously TV 2 Barclays Premier League HD), which contains two sport channels. TV 2 Sport Premium Broadcasts live matches from Premier League, the FA Cup, Scottish Premiership, Allsvenskan and SHL.[3]
In 2012 the channel was rebranded to a 24 hours sports channel named TV 2 Sportskanalen. In 2013 the resolution was changed from SD to HD. In 2018, Sportskanalen changed its name to TV 2 Sport 2, the other channel name is TV 2 Sport 1.
