LAS VEGAS, NV — Saturday, February 7 — National Soccer Network (NSN) made history Saturday night during the 6:00 PM West Division matchup between Las Vegas and Albuquerque, delivering the first-ever Kids Game simulcast in network history.
The alternate broadcast aired alongside the traditional coverage and offered a fresh, kid-friendly way to experience live indoor soccer, focusing on storytelling, excitement, and imagination rather than a standard play-by-play approach.
A Game Told Through a New Lens
Instead of calling the match in a traditional broadcast style, the Kids Game simulcast told the story of the game through a unique perspective, designed to connect with younger viewers. Moments on the field were framed as part of a larger story, helping kids follow the flow of the match while building excitement and emotional connection to the action.
Calling the historic broadcast were Giovanni Zago and Chase Thomas, who became the first announcers in NSN history to call a Kids Game simulcast. The duo brought energy, creativity, and personality to the broadcast, guiding viewers through the match in a way that felt approachable, fun, and engaging.
Rather than focusing on technical breakdowns, the broadcast highlighted the drama, momentum shifts, and big moments of the game — allowing kids to experience soccer as a story unfolding in real time.
A Milestone for NSN Coverage
The Kids Game simulcast represents another step forward in NSN’s commitment to innovative storytelling and audience-first broadcasts. By creating an alternate viewing experience tailored to younger fans, NSN continues to explore new ways to make the sport accessible and engaging for all audiences.
Saturday night’s historic simulcast added to an already memorable WMLIS weekend in Las Vegas and set the stage for future creative broadcasts on the National Soccer Network.
