The new show will run Monday through Friday from Noon to 1 p.m. during the academic school year and focus on all Georgia High School Association (GHSA) sports seasons and championships.

“We have been working on this for a year and with a fully built-out studio we will be able to deliver a high school show every day similar to what ESPN is doing with multiple sports, and the NFL and MLB Networks with their daily shows,’’ said I.J. Rosenberg, President of Score Atlanta, whose company will broadcast more than 44 high school football and flag games this season on Peachtree Sports Network. “It will focus heavily on breaking news, interviews, stories, rankings and so on. And this will not just be a high school football show. During the fall, we will also cover volleyball and softball as well as anything that breaks from the other sports. It should be a lot of fun and student-athletes and coaches will be able to watch on their phones during lunch.’’

The show will be aired again every weeknight at 11 on the Peachtree Sports Network and talent for the show will be announced soon. Football stars and experts are among the planned guest hosts, which include former NFL Hall of Famers from Georgia and On3 recruiting expert Rusty Mansell. In addition, Score will partner with weekday morning newsletter “Georgia High School Football Daily’’ and Daily writers Todd Holcomb and Chip Saye will make appearances on the show.

“We want to be the go-to place on television for high school sports fans,’’ said Rosenberg. “We have events like the Corky Kell + Dave Hunter Classic to our Friday night games (Drive for the GHSA State Title) to the Georgia High School Football Hall of Fame and Georgia Elite Classic that will help drive the show and we are going to be able to bring in a lot of variety when it comes to guests and information. This is not going to be a bunch of talking heads arguing with each other. This is going to be news with interviews and information on all high school sports.’’

Launched in October 2023, Peachtree Sports Network brings live, local sports programming to viewers across the Atlanta area and six markets in Georgia.

“Peachtree Sports Network was created for live, local sports and sports programming just like this,” Vice President and General Manager of WANF/WPCH Erik Schrader said. “We’re excited to add this daily show to the lineup and keep growing our sports fanbase here and throughout the state of Georgia.”
