Vodafone Italia to show Serie games on 3G phones
May 31, 2003
Vodafone Italia has acquired the exclusive worldwide rights to show pictures
of the games of 31 Italian Serie A, Serie B and Serie C football teams.
The agreement will run for a period of 8 years until the 2009-2010 season
and covers all wireless access technologies, 3G UMTS included.
The rights cover all home league games, regardless of who the visiting
opponents are.
Italy boasts close on 22 million football fans, to whom Vodafone will
offer pictures of 50% of Serie A games and 70% of Serie B matches, in
addition to action from Serie C. The total number of teams in Serie A
will increase with the start of the coming 2003/2004 season, thanks to
the promotion of a number of teams that currently play in Serie B and
for whom Vodafone has acquired the rights.
From next season, images of 61% of all Italian championship matches will
be available to Vodafone Italia customers, even whilst abroad.
Fans will be able to receive on their Vodafone Live! handsets photos
and videos of the goals scored and the match highlights near-live or consult
the Vodafone Live! football channel to view content and images.
The services will be accessible on Vodafone Live! handsets from next
season and will continue to be available on the next-generation 3G phones
to challenge 3 Italy, the first 3G operator in Italy,
The project has been developed and run in collaboration with MP WEB,
a Media Partners Group company.
Vodafone Italia's main rival, 3 Italy, have signed a nine-year agreement
back in late 2001 with A.S. Roma and Lazio for the broadcast of the goals
and the most important images of home games on 3G phoness.
