SAN JOSE, Calif. - April 9, 2026 - The non-stop action-packed 2026 Banana Ball World Tour is now coming to the Roku Sports Channel, thanks to a partnership between Roku and the Banana Ball Championship League (BBCL).

"The Savannah Bananas deliver a one-of-a-kind experience with high energy, high stakes, and lots of fun. We can't wait to bring their antics back to millions of viewers on Roku Sports Channel," said Joe Franzetta, Head of Sports, Roku Media. "We're beyond excited to collaborate on some bespoke opportunities, to help both new and die-hard fans discover and engage with the game across our platform."
