The
sports broadcaster will join the two Fox Sports networks-- the Fox
Footy Channel and Sky Racing - in providing sports coverage for
Foxtel subscribers. ESPN will be made available to subscribers on
two different tiers – the Fox Footy Sports Plus package and the
Entertainment Plus package.
While
continuing its relationship with its current affiliates, including
Optus and Austar, ESPN’s agreement with Foxtel will make the sports
network available to nearly one million Australian subscribers,
says the release. ESPN features a variety of the premier international
sports leagues and events, such as the NBA, ATP Tennis Masters Series
and UEFA Champions League. Specific programmes this month include
ESPN’s X Games and original productions like The History of Cricket
and The Great Footy Debate, as well as entertainment
specials such as The ESPN Action Sports and Music Awards
and The World’s Sexiest Athlete.
