April has a full month of schedules for the local high school sports but needs Mother Nature to cooperate with so many being outdoors. This includes not just baseball and softball, but also golf, lacrosse, soccer, tennis, and both boys and girls track. The indoor seasons are still happening though with water polo in progress as well.
WKTV will once again bring water polo, baseball, and softball to the viewers with a trio of programs over the course of the month.
The tentative schedule is:
Thursday, April 11, girls water polo, West Ottawa at East Kentwood
Thursday, April 18, girls softball, Byron Center at South Christian
Wednesday, April 24, girls softball, Belding at Wyoming Lee
Featured games are broadcast the night of the contest and then at least once later in the week.
WKTV broadcasts on Wyoming and Kentwood cable channels. On Comcast cable, Channel 25 is the Community Channel, where sports events and other community events are shown; Channel 26 is the Government Channel, where local government meetings and events are shown. On AT&T cable throughout the Grand Rapids area, viewers go to Channel 99, and then are given the choice to watch Wyoming (or Kentwood) Community (Channel 25) or Government (Channel 26) channels.
For complete schedules of programs on WKTV channels, see our Weekly On-air Schedule.
All Featured Games, as well as other high school sports and community events covered by WKTV, are available on-demand within a week of play at wktvondemand.com.
For a complete schedule of all local high school sports action each week, any changes to the WKTV feature sports schedule, and feature stories on local sports, visit wktvjournal.org/sports/.
