Cox Media Group (CMG) Jacksonville and the Tampa Bay Lightning on Wednesday announced a new local broadcast partnership, naming Action Sports Jax TV the team's official broadcast partner in Northeast Florida beginning this season (2026-27).
The addition builds on Action Sports Jax TV's fast-growing sports lineup. The channel is already the Official Station of the Jacksonville Jaguars and carries every Orlando Magic game under a new multi-year NBA partnership — making WJAX-TV 47.2 one of the most sports-rich, free over-the-air channels in the Southeast.
Under the new agreement, all locally distributed Tampa Bay Lightning regular-season games — apart from national exclusives — will air on Action Sports Jax TV (WJAX-TV 47.2), with select games also airing on CBS47 and FOX30.
This new partnership will bring Tampa Bay Lightning hockey games free to households throughout Northeast Florida.
