Frequently Asked Questions: FloSports x CMS
Do I need a FloSports subscription to watch CMS home contests?
Yes. CMS will broadcast all home regular season and SCIAC tournament contests exclusively through the FloSports platform as will all of our conference opponents.
Why did CMS Athletics move to the FloSports platform?
All nine SCIAC institutions signed a five-year deal with FloSports to be its exclusive media rights partner prior to the start of the 2024-24 season. The SCIAC’s decision to move to FloSports was to support the overall elevation of streaming production on all of our conference campuses, and so that there is a similar streaming experience whether we are home or away.
What benefits does Flo provide CMS?
In exchange for exclusive media rights, FloSports provides financial resources and technical support to the conference office and its member institutions in order to meet the growing demand for a quality video streaming experience. The contract with FloSports has enabled CMS to purchase new equipment and expand the athletics communications staff in an effort to produce a stronger, more consistent video streaming product.
What are the costs to subscribe?
Those who sign up through the conference landing page will receive a discounted subscription cost of $19.99 a month or $107.88 a year ($8.99/month). Subscribers who register with a SCIAC member institution .edu email address will receive a further discounted monthly rate of $9.99 or $69.99 a year ($5.83/month).

If I subscribe to one sport, do I only have access to that sport?
No. Regardless of the vertical under which you subscribe (SCIAC Football, SCIAC Volleyball, SCIAC Soccer, and SCIAC Water Polo are the current options), you will have access to all CMS content and the entire FloSports network.
What do I get with my subscription?
Subscribers will have access to ALL FloSports content in addition to CMS and SCIAC competitions. FloSports has access to live streams, event replays, news, and award-winning content, including Flo Originals.
What devices can I use?
You can watch on any desktop, laptop, tablet, or browser (the latest version of Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox are recommended). The mobile app can be found in the Apple Store or the Google Play Store, and connected TV apps available included the Roku Channel Store and Amazon Fire.
Can I cancel?
Subscriptions can be purchased annually or month-to-month (and can be canceled at any time) to provide flexibility. Your subscription will remain active through the remainder of the last billing cycle. Visit the account details-subscription page to make a change to your subscription.
