StarTimes Sports is a chain of pay-television sports broadcasting channels operated byStarTimes in sub-Saharan Africa.

History

[edit]

StarTimes first foray into sports broadcasting was in 2012, when it purchased a package of ItalianSerie A games to air one a week on itsStarTimes KungFu channel. In 2013StarTimes purchased a package to air one FrenchLigue 1 game everyweek also on its StarTimes KungFu channel.

On 19 July 2014, StarTimes Sports 2 was launched as the first channel in the StarTimes Sports channel chain.[1] This was informed due toStarTimes taking in more sporting content as its satellite TV service expanded.The new channel was to air football games from theUEFA Euro 2016 qualifying tournament, the FrenchLigue 1 and2014 International Champions Cup.[2]

On 1 June 2015, StarTimes added a third sports channel to the chain, StarTimes Sports Premium, this was after StarTimes Sports Focus was added earlier in the year.[3]

Later on, in August 2015, StarTimes Sports Life and World Football were added to the StarTimes EPG bringing the total number of StarTimes Sports channels to five. StarTimes Sports 2 has since been rebranded to StarTimes Sports Arena.[4]
