If you are a greyhound racing enthusiast and have recently moved to the USA, then the unavailability of such live racing events will be a little tough to adjust around or so you thought. This is because the perfect solution is here. Recently, Greyhound Racing Victoria or GRV has collaborated with Sky Racing and Tabcorp. The result of this collaboration is that Live Greyhound Racing will be accessible to the rest of the world.

Possibilities for greyhound racing outside Australia

According to the chairman of GRV, these events will be broadcasted to North America, and this move has the potential to reach millions of people as the audience. Therefore, if you have been missing your weekly or daily greyhound racing events so far, then that issue is about to be solved. This initiative has been taken to ensure that the great sport of greyhound racing can be showcased to all.

Looking beyond the obvious in greyhound racing

A lot of people think that greyhound racing is about a bunch of greyhounds running on a track and one of them winning the race. Though that’s the basic definition, there is more to it. Every greyhound racing enthusiast will tell you that even when you are not betting, there is so much more to such a race. For instance, there are topics like great athletes, history of the racing greyhounds, trainers, details of the track and such.
Having access to a new audience

In addition to only the enthusiasts, these shows will reach a wagering audience which will be massive in size. At the time of such a global pandemic, it will help the economy considerably. The future is all set to be quite exciting. The opportunities at this moment and in future are also going to be unprecedented for the Australian greyhound racing industry. Access to the new audience will give a new lease of life to the Live Greyhound Racing events.

The plan for broadcasting the races

The races will be broadcasted throughout the USA. Once the pandemic situation is over, the collaborating companies are planning for live streaming of the races at casinos, clubs and other venues. The project will be implemented in two connected phases. In the beginning, one greyhound race will be broadcasted every day, and then it will progress to co-mingling while adhering to regulatory approvals.

The future of greyhound racing in Australia is going to be an exciting and beneficial venture.
