WPS, Fox Soccer in Accord

NEW YORK Women’s Professional Soccer has signed a three-year broadcast agreement with Fox Soccer Channel that will commence in April 2009, when the league officially begins game play.

FSC will televise a live national Sunday night WPS game of the week, covering a minimum of 20 matches over the course of the regular season as well as the league all-star game. The agreement has the option to be extended to a fourth year.

“Fox Soccer Channel has become the go-to place for global soccer coverage in the United States and is a tremendous broadcast platform for our league,” said WPS commissioner Tonya Antonucci.
