Providence College already sells subscriptions for online audio broadcasts of sporting events, charging $6.95 per month for men’s and women’s basketball and ice hockey.

The program, Providence All Access, is managed by CSTV Networks Inc., a college sports network founded in 1999 and acquired by CBS last year.

There were 1,208 subscriber-months sold in the last fiscal year, generating $8,845 in revenue that Providence College split with CSTV.

With streaming video, that monthly subscription fee will rise to $9.95. Parks said he hopes to increase gross revenue to $20,000.

“We’re hoping that will go up because the video really enhances it,” Parks said. “It drives people to our Web site. There’s advertising on there that we generate revenue from, and an online store. As costs go up, you’re always looking for new revenue streams.”

Providence All Access will also include live video for some home games for field hockey, women’s basketball, men’s and women’s ice hockey, volleyball and lacrosse.

The games will be captured by college staff using a digital camera and laptop the college bought last summer.

Eventually, the service will feature interviews with coaches and players online, as well as other features.

Tom Odjakjian, an associate commissioner for the Big East conference, negotiated the new contract with ESPN. He said some colleges might not set up a pay-per-view system for the streaming video, and the number of games available for streaming might vary significantly.

But all schools, Odjakjian said, could benefit from better brand recognition and new supporters. “Your fans around the world can see this,” he said. “It’s amazing the feedback you get from that outreach.”

For Providence College next season, 18 of the 29 games are against conference rivals and will be broadcast on ESPN. Of the remaining 11, seven will be played at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center, in Providence. The season begins in November and ends in March.

ESPN could choose to air some non-conference games, such as the Dec. 22 contest against Florida State University.

But the network is unlikely to snatch up all 29 games, with some rivalries, including Providence College and Brown University, of more local interest. (They are scheduled to play Dec. 9.)
