The entire Arena Football League schedule of the Albany Empire, both home and away games, will be televised by WNYA (My-51, or My-4 on Spectrum cable), it was revealed Monday.

Rodger Wyland, sports director of sister station WNYT (NBC-13), made the announcement on his station’s 6 p.m. sportscast. The season begins at 7 p.m. Saturday with a game against the expansion Columbus Destroyers at Times Union Center.

The league has not announced a national TV package, and it is believed that CBS Sports Network, which aired a weekly game last season, will not be an AFL partner. The network announced Monday that it will air a 40-game package of WNBA games, leaving little room for Arena Football inventory.

According to George Manias, chief operating officer of the Empire, a TV announcement — both locally and nationally — is expected to be made later this week.
