Eleven, a channel dedicated exclusively to the best football from around the world, and exciting multi-sport channel, Eleven Sports, are now available to all SGT subscribers in the JAMBOX service as part of a promotional viewing period until the end of November. After this, both channels will be sold as part of a package and as a standalone option.
The agreement with Evio Polska means the Eleven and Eleven Sports channels will be available to all Telewizja Swiatlowodowa subscribers from December 1, as part of a two-month promotional viewing period, before being added to the Basic package.
“Our non-exclusive distribution strategy means we want our channels to be available to as many fans as possible,” says Danny Menken, group managing director, Eleven Sports Network.
“We are pleased to add Telewizja Swiatlowodowa and JAambox viewers to our audience, and offer them exhilarating sports action including next month’s El Clásico, and Rome derby clashes.”
Eleven has already won two major industry awards in Poland this year, picking up Broadcaster of the Year at the Sat Kurier Awards 2016, and ‘Event of the Year’ at the 11th Festival of Theme Channels, as nominated by fans and voted for by media professionals respectively.
The network boasts close to 100% distribution in Poland, with its channels available on a total of 60 platforms, including Eleven Sports and all the largest cable operators, DTH and online providers such as nc+, Cyfrowy Polsat, UPC, Vectra, Multimedia Polska, INEA, Toya, Orange, Netia, player.pl and IPLA, with some of the network’s premium sports content available on sport.pl, onet.pl and wp.pl.
