GLOBL JAM – a first-of-its-kind men's and women's under-23 international basketball showcase – tips off in the heart of Toronto from July 5-10, and you can watch it exclusively on Sportsnet.

Coverage will be televised across Sportsnet, Sportsnet ONE, Sportsnet 360 and through live streaming on SN NOW as competition gets underway from the Mattamy Athletic Centre on July 5 at 11 a.m. ET / 8 a.m. PT with the women’s tournament tipping off between the United States and France, followed by the start of the men’s competition between the United States and Italy.

Later that evening, Canada’s women’s and men’s squads launch their GLOBL JAM journey with back-to-back games vs. Belgium and Brazil, respectively. Fans can catch both Canadian teams in action in primetime every night throughout the round-robin tournament.

Host Danielle Michaud and analyst Sherman Hamilton will prove pre-game, post-game and halftime coverage live from the events.

From the booth, Ben Shulman will take on play-by-play duties alongside analyst Jevohn Sheperd during the day, while Raptors play-by-play man Matt Devlin and analyst Amy Audibert will takeover for all primetime Team Canada games. Reporter Devo Brown will also deliver news directly from courtside during the primetime slot.

Recognized by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA), GLOBL JAM men’s and women’s tournaments will feature two pools of four teams, respectively, competing in round-robin action July 5-7.
