As the Sugar Skulls’ official television partner, CW Tucson will continue to provide the Tucson market with exclusive english-language telecasts of all Tucson Sugar Skulls home games throughout the 2021 Indoor Football League season.
The games will be televised live locally on The CW, KWBA-TV, Channel 58. All games will also be simulcasted live on the IFL’s Youtube channel for fans outside of the Tucson market.
