FIH to stream Champions Trophy Online for Free

Loving the hockey on Setanta from the past couple of weeks? Well, this Sunday doesn't have to be the end of your hockey viewing


The WorldHockey Champions Trophy, taking place in Rotterdam from June 21-29, will be streamed online by the International Hockey Federation (FIH).

Starting with the opening match between Australia and Korea at 1035 on Saturday 21 June, key matches from the event will be made available free of charge to viewers on FIH’s streaming site http://www.worldhockey.tv/ and will be powered by FIH’s streaming partner, Vienna-based unas media productions (http://www.unas.tv/).

FIH is re-launching www.worldhockey.tv on an experimental basis for the WorldHockey Champions Trophy and for the first time the site will offer live streaming on a free-of-charge basis. After the WorldHockey Champions Trophy, the FIH aims to develop the site in future months to also offer on-demand content.
