In late February 2025, Disney announced that SC+ would be debuting on the streaming service on Monday, March 3rd. According to Disney’s release, the fast-paced update will highlight “each day’s top sports moments, stories, insights and exclusive commentary in a more concise and streamlined format.”

 

 

The weekday edition of this latest expansion of the SportsCenter franchise will be hosted by Gary Striewski and Randy Scott. The show will be streamed live beginning at 9:00 AM EST, and each day’s episode will be available on demand on Disney+ for 24 hours. Hannah Storm and Jay Harris will host SC+ on weekends, with the program streaming live, following the conclusion of their  SportsCenter: AM telecast on ESPN.

SC+ be built around “the highly popular “SC Top 10” daily countdown of sports moments” and the broadcast will “deliver the most important sports news stories of the day, complemented by insights from ESPN’s top insiders and reporters” all of which is designed to appeal to a more casual, entertainment-focused audience.

Mike Foss, Senior Vice President, Studio & Entertainment for the company said of the announcement, “It’s an absolute honor to take one of ESPN’s most-prestigious and historic brands in SportsCenter and infuse it with the energy and creativity afforded by Disney+. SC+ endeavors to tell the best stories in sports daily in an unforgettable way. This fresh approach, combined with the expansive reach of Disney+, will resonate whether you are an ardent sports fan or looking for something new after your latest series binge.”

Alisa Bowen, the President of Disney+, added “ESPN has long defined excellence in sports programming, and now Disney+ subscribers will have daily access to the most exciting sports news, moments, and stories.”

The addition of SC+ to the Disney+ library is seemingly part of Disney’s larger strategy to grow its streaming subscription base by appealing to those at least casually interested in sports. Currently, standalone Disney+ subscribers have access to “a curated selection of content from ESPN+ and Hulu including live sports events, studio shows, ESPN Originals, TV series and films — all in one place.” Subscribers to the Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ have access to the full library of ESPN+ content, including “more than 30,000 live sports events yearly and a library of on-demand replays and acclaimed original content and studio programming.”
