DAZN adds veteran broadcasters Cybulski, Dort to its CFL broadcast crew

CALGARY — DAZN rounded out its CFL broadcasting crew Thursday.

The sports streaming platform added veteran broadcasters James Cybulski and Brit Dort. Cybulski will be the lead play-by-play announcer for Saturday Night Football in Canada while Dort will host the panel.

Dort will also lead the network’s pre-game, halftime and post-game coverage.

They’ll join former CFL players Shawn Lemon, Simoni Lawrence and Chris Streveler. DAZN announced the hiring of Lemon and Lawrence on Wednesday while Streveler’s appointment came in September.

Cybulski will work with Lemon in the booth. Dort will be with Streveler and Lawrence on the desk.

Starting next season, DAZN will be the exclusive broadcaster of Saturday Night Football as part of the CFL’s new six-year broadcast agreement worth roughly $500 million that was announced in May. Saturday Night Football will broadcast 21 straight weeks, including one exhibition game and two exclusive playoff contests.
