The Team was a Canadian sports radio network, which broadcast from 2001 to 2002. It was owned and operated by CHUM Limited, based on the existing format of their Ottawa station The Team 1200.
The network, which launched on May 7, 2001, struggled to build an audience in many cities. In Toronto, for example, the network had to compete against The Fan 590, and found that much of their potential audience had already built a strong sense of loyalty to Rogers' more established station. The switch of 1050 CHUM away from its former oldies format was also controversial on its own.
The network aired both original programming -- its star Canadian sportscaster was Jim Van Horne -- and syndicated sports programming from the United States, such as The Jim Rome Show.
