“MAKING TEAM USA PRESENTED BY XFINITY” – NBCUNIVERSAL TO PRESENT RECORD-SETTING U.S. OLYMPIC TEAM TRIALS COVERAGE AS AMERICA’S TOP ATHLETES VIE TO REPRESENT TEAM USA IN PARIS

April 4, 2024 By admin

“All the drama we love about the Olympics begins with Making Team USA, when our nation’s best athletes vie to make the most competitive team in the world. In some events, it’s harder to qualify for the U.S. team than it is to win a medal at the Olympics themselves.” – Molly Solomon, Executive Producer & President of NBC Olympics Production

Extensive Coverage of U.S. Olympic Team Trials Ahead of Paris Olympics: Over 200 Hours of Live Programming Across NBC, Peacock, and USA Network; Record 14 Nights of Primetime and 45 Hours on NBC; All Events Stream Live on Peacock

U.S. Olympic Team Trials for Swimming, Gymnastics, Track & Field, and Diving to be Presented in June Across NBC, Peacock, and USA Network; Wrestling, Rowing, and Canoe to be Presented in April Across Peacock and USA Network

U.S. Paralympic Team Trials for Rowing, Swimming and Track & Field to be Presented Across Peacock and CNBC

STAMFORD, Conn. – April 4, 2024 – The road to the Olympic Games Paris 2024 for the United States’ best and brightest athletes starts here: NBCUniversal will present comprehensive coverage of Making Team USA Presented by Xfinity — the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Team Trials — this spring and summer. NBCU is presenting over 200 hours of coverage, including more than 35 hours in primetime on NBC in the lead up to the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad in Paris, France, which take place July 26-Aug. 11.

Team USA is arguably the hardest Olympic team to make and the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Team Trials are a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for many of the athletes involved, representing the culmination of decades of training and preparation. NBCU’s Making Team USA coverage strives not only to capture the athletic performances at the Trials but to also include athlete-led storytelling and behind-the-scenes content to fully present the experience of qualifying for the Olympics.

“All the drama we love about the Olympics begins with Making Team USA, when our nation’s best athletes vie to make the most competitive team in the world. In some events, it’s harder to qualify for the U.S. team than it is to win a medal at the Olympics themselves,” said Molly Solomon, Executive Producer & President of NBC Olympics Production. “Earning a place on Team USA is a lifelong dream for these athletes and most of them get only one opportunity to do so, which is what makes the competition so fierce and the drama so compelling. But the reward for all the hard work is sweet — once you make Team USA, you’re an Olympian for life.”

“The U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Team Trials offer some of the best competition anywhere in the world – a testament to the excellence and depth of the athlete pool striving to represent Team USA in Paris this summer,” said Rocky Harris, USOPC chief of sport and athlete services. “We are looking forward to the Paris Games – opening just a little more than 100 days from now – but first we join fans around the country in celebrating the awesome effort of athletes giving their all to make Team USA.”

NBCU’s April coverage consists of wrestling, rowing, and canoe/kayaking while June covers swimming, diving, track & field, and gymnastics, including 14 nights in primetime on NBC. Some of the most anticipated stories and athletes for the June events leading into Paris include:

    • Swimming: Seven-time Olympic gold medalist Katie Ledecky, who could tie or break the all-time record for Olympic gold medals won by a U.S. woman (8); seven-time Olympic gold medalist Caeleb Dressel, who earned five in Tokyo; 14-time world medalist Kate Douglass; and six-time Olympic medalist Ryan Murphy. Coverage runs from June 15-23 and includes nine nights of primetime coverage on NBC.

 

    • Gymnastics: The most decorated gymnast in history and four-time Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles looks to make her third U.S. Olympic Team in hopes of becoming the first woman to win two Olympic all-around titles since Czechoslovakia’s Věra Čáslavská in 1964 and 1968. Like Ledecky, Biles has the chance to tie or break the all-time record for Olympic gold medals won by a U.S. woman (8). She likely won’t be the only gold medalist on hand in Minneapolis; three-time Tokyo Olympic medalist and defending Olympic all-around champion Suni Lee seeks her second Olympic berth and a chance to match Čáslavská’s feat, and 2012 gold medalist Gabby Douglas looks to make the field in Minneapolis as well. Other top women are Tokyo Olympic floor gold medalist Jade Carey; Tokyo Olympic team silver medalist Jordan Chiles; six-time world medalist Shilese Jones; and four-time world medalist Leanne Wong. The U.S. men feature the most talent in a generation, including individual 2023 World Championship medalists Fred Richard and Khoi Young, and past world medalists and Tokyo Olympians Brody Malone and Yul Moldauer. Live coverage takes place June 27-30 and culminates with the women’s final live in primetime on NBC.

 

    • Track & Field: Six-time world champion Noah Lyles, coming off a 2023 World Championship performance that saw him become the first athlete since Usain Bolt to win the men’s 100m, 200m, and 4x100m relay; defending Olympic women’s 400m hurdles champion and world record holder Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone; reigning women’s 100m world champion Sha’Carri Richardson, looking to make her Olympic debut; and two-time defending Olympic men’s shot put gold medalist and world record holder Ryan Crouser, aiming to become the first athlete to win three consecutive shot put gold medals. Track & field coverage runs from June 21-24 and June 27-30, featuring eight nights of primetime on NBC.

 

    • Diving: Tokyo Olympic synchronized 10m platform silver medalist Jessica Parratto, aiming for her third Olympic appearance; Tokyo Olympic synchronized 3m springboard silver medalist Andrew Capobianco; and Tokyo Olympian Tyler Downs are all expected to compete. Coverage will take place June 17-23, and includes live coverage of the men’s and women’s springboard and platform finals on NBC.

As presenting sponsor, Xfinity will partner with NBCUniversal to shine a light on the journeys of these remarkable athletes across its connectivity and entertainment platforms.  Xfinity is also rolling out its Xfinity Athlete Connections program, which will provide a “connections credit” to each athlete who qualifies for the 2024 U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Teams to help them remain connected while pursuing their dreams this summer.

“The Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024 will be nothing short of extraordinary. As a proud partner of Team USA, we’re honored to spotlight the incredible athletes on their path to Making Team USA,” said Matt Lederer, Vice President, Brand Partnerships & Amplification, Xfinity. “And, our Xfinity Athlete Connections program will keep Team USA athletes connected to what matters most during their pursuit of Olympic and Paralympic gold.”

NBCU has already presented U.S. Olympic Team Trials coverage of Boxing, the Marathon, and Table Tennis.

All Olympic and Paralympic Trials coverage streams via NBCOlympics.com and the NBC Sports app.

STAMFORD, Conn. – Feb. 1, 2024 – With less than six months until the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, NBC Sports presents live coverage of the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Marathon, this Saturday, Feb. 3 at 10 a.m. ET on Peacock from Orlando, Fla., with an encore presentation on NBC later that day at Noon ET. The runners will begin and end the course in the heart of downtown Orlando, near Lake Eola Park.

The men’s race, slated to start at 10:10 a.m. ET, is headlined by two-time Olympic medalist and two-time reigning U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials champion Galen Rupp, aiming for his fifth Olympic appearance, rising star Conner Mantz, who leads the field with a personal best of 2:07:47, and his training partner, Clayton Young, a fellow BYU alum and NCAA champion. Mantz finished as the top American at the 2023 Chicago Marathon en route to becoming the fifth-fastest U.S. marathoner of all time, while Young finished seventh in 2:08:00. While competing collegiately at BYU, Mantz won the 2020 and 2021 NCAA Cross Country Championships, while Young won the 2019 NCAA Outdoor 10,000m.

Additionally, 2016 Rio 10,000m Olympian Leonard Korir, three-time Boston Marathon top American Scott Fauble, and two-time Olympic 5,000m medalist Paul Chelimo, making his debut at the distance, round out the field.

U.S. men have unlocked two of a possible three spots for the Paris Olympics entering Trials, with Mantz and Young being the only men in the field with the Olympic qualifying time (2:08:10). The only way for the U.S. men to unlock a third spot at Trials is for a man who is not Conner Mantz or Clayton Young to run at or under the Olympic standard of 2:08:10. In all other outcomes – the top two finishers who have run at or under the Quota Reallocation Time of 2:11:30 within the qualification period (inclusive of Trials) will be named to the team, and there will be a waiting game to determine if the U.S. can send a third male marathoner to the Paris Olympics. For more information on the qualification process, click here.

The women’s race, with the gun going off at 10:20 a.m. ET, is highlighted by Tokyo 10,000m Olympian and U.S. marathon record holder Emily Sisson (2:18:29), 2022 World Championship marathoner Keira D’Amato, reigning U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials champion Aliphine Tuliamuk, fastest U.S. marathoner of 2023 Betsy Saina, two-time Olympian and 2018 Boston Marathon winner Des Linden, and fourth-fastest U.S. marathoner of all time Sara Hall, seeking her first Olympic berth.

The U.S. women have unlocked all three Olympic spots for Paris. The top three finishers across the line in Orlando will be named to the team as long as they have run at/under 2:29:30 within the qualifying window (inclusive of Trials).

Leigh Diffey will call the action, joined by analyst and two-time Olympian Kara Goucher, who finished in 10th place at the 2012 London Olympic Marathon, and on-course reporter and 2004 Athens Olympic marathon bronze medalist Deena Kastor, a three-time Olympian who held the U.S. marathon record from 2006-2022. Lewis Johnson will also serve as reporter.

All coverage on Peacock and NBC will also stream on NBCSports.com and the NBC Sports app.

In Paris this summer, the world’s greatest athletes will compete against the backdrop of one of the most beautiful cities in the world where the modern Olympic Games were conceived 130 years ago. This will be the third time Paris has hosted the Olympics (1900 and 1924), tying London for the most as a Summer Games host. Los Angeles (1932, 1984) will tie those two cities when it hosts the first Summer Games in the U.S. in 32 years in 2028.

The Paris organizers are reimagining the Games to make them more accessible to the public and to showcase their city to the world. In a first, competitions will be held amidst iconic Parisian landmarks – beach volleyball at the Eiffel Tower, equestrian at the Palace of Versailles, and urban sports at Place de la Concorde. The surfing competition will take place nearly 10,000 miles from Paris in Tahiti, a part of French Polynesia.

In May, NBCUniversal announced that the NBC broadcast network and streaming service Peacock will be the company’s primary platforms for its coverage of the Olympic Games Paris 2024, scheduled for July 26-Aug. 11, 2024. Click here for more programming information and here for information about the Paralympics, which will take place Aug. 28-Sept. 8.

NBCUniversal owns the U.S. media rights to the Olympic Games through 2032, which are scheduled for Paris (2024), Milan Cortina (2026), Los Angeles (2028) and Brisbane (2032). The host city for the 2030 Olympic Winter Games has not yet been chosen.
