CFRN is a radio station in Edmonton, Alberta. Owned by Astral Media and broadcasting at 1260 AM, the station airs a sports format, branded as The Team 1260. Originally launched in 2002 as a part of The Team national sports radio network, the Team 1260 had to quickly adapt to life without the national network when CHUM pulled the plug on the national sports network in August 2002.

The Team 1260 features more hours of local sports broadcasting than any other radio station in the Edmonton market. While not broadcasting local programming, the Team 1260 broadscasts content from ESPN Radio, the Fan Radio Network (including Prime Time Sports) and other syndicated programming such as the Jim Rome Show.

The station's studios are located at 18520 Stony Plain Road in Edmonton, where it shares studio space with its former sister station, CTV O&O CFRN-TV.
