History
On April 14, 2019, TAP Sports was launched by TAP DMV on cable provider Sky Cable. Back then, it used to be broadcast on two separate channels covering all live tennis events: TAP Sports 1 (airing the men's ATP tournaments) and TAP Sports 2 (airing the women's WTA tournaments).[3]
On February 17, 2020, the TAP Sports network was relaunched, this time as a general sports channel replacing TAP Sports 1. On the same day, it launched 4 new sister channels: TAP W (women-centric sports; replacing TAP Sports 2), TAP Edge (action/adventure/outdoor sports; including EDGEsport programming), Premier Tennis (ATP and WTA), and Premier Football (soccer).
On September 20, 2021, TAP DMV launched Premier Sports, a complimentary channel of TAP Sports.
