Sky announces sports channel reshuffle

20 March 2023

A number of sports channels, including BT Sport 4, LFCTV and Racing TV will move to new channel numbers on Sky Q and Sky+HD this week.

The move is the latest gap-filling exercise, following similar changes in the news and radio sections of Sky’s satellite channel list.

During the morning of Wednesday 22nd March, seven channels will shuffle up the channel list in the UK. In the Republic of Ireland, up six channels will move to new positions.

The sports section was last given a major overhaul in May 2018.

These changes do not apply if you’re watching on Sky Glass or Sky Stream (puck).
