Jomboy Media, an independent sports media brand, has teamed up with regional sports network Bally Sports to broadcast its “Warehouse Games” series. The franchise includes games such as ball in play, floorball, blitzball, and slapball. This partnership marks the first time that these games will be featured on a mainstream linear platform.
Jomboy will be producing multiple one-hour episodes showcasing content from the 2023 and 2024 Warehouse Games. The series is set to debut on Sunday, June 30, across Bally Sports’ 17 regional sports networks as well as the Bally Sports app.
Founder of Jomboy Media, Jimmy “Jomboy” O’Brien, expressed his excitement about the partnership stating, “From the beginning, our mission was to dress up the friendly competition and banter of pick-up games in a TV-quality product.” The brand invested in creating new games, franchises, personalities, and league formats. The hard work has paid off as they are now reaching a new milestone with this partnership.
In addition to airing matchups from the Warehouse Games featuring Jomboy Media personalities and special guests like Chris Rose, Trevor Plouffe, and Daren Sammy, the deal with Bally Sports will also include MLB player and manager interviews, the baseball trivia game “RefGuess,” and video-essay deep dives from Jolly Olive on Bally Sports+.
Jomboy Media’s COO, Courtney Hirsch, emphasized that this partnership with Bally Sports is an exciting opportunity to introduce Warehouse Games to a broader audience. The creators at Jomboy Media have proven their ability to craft engaging content that resonates with sports fans, whether it’s digital, linear, or anywhere else they consume video content. The team is looking forward to expanding the fanbase for Warehouse Games through this new collaboration.
