Additionally, Time Warner Cable will launch GolTV in several of its Texas systems, including systems in Austin and Waco, as well as on its Hudson Valley system in New York.
“Soccer has more participants than any other sport in the Americas, and as the popularity of soccer increases in North America – so does the reach of GolTV,” said Enzo Francescoli, Founder & CEO of GolTV. “Now Time Warner Cable subscribers won’t miss a match as the 2008-2009 seasons kickoff and the road to the 2010 World Cup begins.”
The Time Warner Cable launch comes as GolTV gears up for Europe’s 2008-2009 season openers. On August 15, only GolTV has exclusive coverage of the opening match of Germany’s Bundesliga, and then off to Spain for La Liga’s season kickoff on August 29.
