Canadian sportscaster on Sportsnet From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rob Faulds (born September 29, 1955) is a Canadian sportscaster on Sportsnet.
Faulds graduated from Western University and started his broadcasting career at CFPL (AM) in London, Ontario.[1] He then worked for CKSO radio and covered the 1992 Summer Olympics and the 1994 Winter Olympics on location for CTV before joining CTV Sports full-time in 1995.[2]
In 1998, Faulds was part of the original Sportsnet team and would go on to host the network's flagship sports news program Sportsnetnews (later re-branded as Sportsnet Central).[2] From 2001 to 2004, he did play-by-play for Toronto Blue Jays telecasts on Sportsnet and has called regional National Hockey League telecasts for the Ottawa Senators and Montreal Canadiens.[2] His home run call for the Blue Jays was "Whattaya think about that?".[3] In the past, he has also called National Lacrosse League games for the network.[4] Faulds currently calls curling[5] and tennis, including the Davis Cup and Canadian Open for Sportsnet.[6][7]
On the CTV series Power Play, Faulds was the play-by-play voice of the fictitious Hamilton Steelheads. Faulds served as a fill-in host for the radio talk-show Prime Time Sports when regular host Bob McCown was unable to appear.
