America One airs primarily international sports programming in prime time, reruns and syndicated programming during the day, along with the syndicated First Business program. The program also carries a handful of live events, such as the annual New Year's Eve coverage of Atlanta's Peach Drop and the Canadian Football League.
The network exceeds the federal E/I requirements by airing Jack Hanna's Animal Adventures five days per week, with other shows (i.e., Real Life 101, What's Up! Que Pasa, and Planet X[1]) rotated to fill the remaining half hour of the requirement.
America One holds the U.S. broadcast rights to the Ontario Hockey League, Australian Football League, the USAR Hooters Pro Cup, certain ECHL games, playoffs in the Indoor Football League, and (on tape delay) the American Hockey League's all star game. America One syndicates many of these broadcasts to various regional sports networks in the US (usually, those which are not part of the Fox Sports Net family). America One also carries tape-delayed broadcasts of the English Premier League, specifically Bolton Wanderers and Everton. America One also now shows Victory Fighting M.M.A. Usually events are on tape delay, but shows quality MMA from the midwest.
America One has broadcast rights to several rugby league organizations. From 2010 Europe's Super League matches will be shown live in addition to Australasia's National Rugby League games.[2][3] They will also be showing the American National Rugby League Grand final.
Historically, America One had a longstanding partnership with the Canadian Football League that lasted through much of the 2000s; this ended prior to the 2010 season, with NFL Network taking over broadcast rights.
