CBC Sports –
CBC-TV:
This weekend’s TV broadcast will begin Saturday at 1 p.m. ET (10 a.m. PT) with coverage from the ISU World Sprint Speed Skating Championships with CBC Sports’ Catriona Le May Doan providing analysis alongside Scott Russell. The winners of this event (one male, one female) are the skaters who put together the fastest cumulative time from four races over two days, two 500m and two 1000m. Le May Doan, a two-time winner at this event, provides a detailed preview for this year’s competition at cbcsports.ca. Coverage of this event will continue Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. (local).
 
Up next will be the final event of the IBSF World Cup Bobsleigh and Skeleton season where the coveted crystal globes will be awarded to the top racers in each discipline. Canada’s Kaillie Humphries leads the women’s bobsleigh standings by 58 points and has finished on the podium at all seven World Cup events so far this season. Barring a disaster, Humphries will claim her third overall World Cup title. On the men’s side, Korea’s Yunjong Won holds a 63-point lead in the standings and is looking to win his country’s first ever overall World Cup title in honour of his coach Malcolm “Gomer” Lloyd who passed away in January. For Canadian pilots Justin Kripps and Chris Spring, the season finale will be their last chance to impress before next year. CBC Sports’ Brenda Irving and Helen Upperton will call the action for this event.
 
Following the IBSF coverage will be the women’s and men’s free programs from the ISU Four Continents Figure Skating Championships with CBC Sports’ Kurt Browning and Carol Lane providing analysis alongside Andi Petrillo. On the men’s side, Canada’s Patrick Chan skates for gold after another disappointing short program, needing a personal best to take the win. China’s Boyang Jin finished second by less than one point, becoming the first skater to land four quad jumps in a single free program in international competition along the way, as well as becoming the first skater to land three different kinds of quadruple jumps in the same program.
 
Rounding out Saturday’s coverage is the FINA Diving World Cup event from the future Rio 2016 Olympic Games diving venue. CBC Sports’ Blythe Hartley and Mark Lee return to provide play-by-play and analysis. Coverage on Saturday will include the men’s and women’s 3m and 10m competitions, which will continue on Sunday afternoon at 3 p.m. (local). Canada’s Jennifer Abel leads the team with two medals, while Maxim Bouchard opens another spot for Canada at Rio 2016.
