SIS and the Irish Greyhound Board have confirmed the addition of a new fixture on Saturday mornings to be broadcast from Tralee stadium.

SIS endeavour to offer premium content and streaming provision across all bookmaker channels and the new deal will complement this, thanks to the help of the IGB.
The first Tralee fixture, comprising of eight races with later races dovetailing SIS’s exisiting coverage from Crayford and Romford, will be broadcast on March 4th 2017 starting at 9.11am.
Paul Witten, Commercial Director at SIS said: “We have added a second fixture from Tralee to our retail and online programs, following customer demand for greater coverage at suitable times and we see the Saturday morning slot as one of those times.
