The INF chooses StreamAMG to provide live & on demand video services and dedicated app for World Netball Events, starting with the Vitality Netball World Cup 2019.

StreamAMG has been chosen by the International Netball Federation (INF) to provide the official live streaming and dedicated Android and iOS applications for INF events from June 2019 starting with the Vitality Netball World Cup 2019 (VNWC2019) which takes place in Liverpool in July. The service and the app will provide fans across the world with access to match highlights, a range of on demand content, and other news and live match scores. Users in territories outside of existing broadcasting agreements will be able to register to watch live matches on the platform.

Clare Briegal, Chief Executive Officer at the INF, commented: “StreamAMG’s reputation in sport and OTT made them the stand-out candidate. We are looking forward to working with them to deliver the thrills of the World Cup to audiences worldwide, increase the global reach and promote the visibility of the fantastic role models in our great sport.

"The new app is an exciting development for the World Netball Events and the INF to bring something new and unique to netball fans across the globe. The app will support the aim of the VNWC2019 and INF to inspire girls and women of all ages to be bold, supportive and passionate both about the sport and themselves.”

Hugo Sharman, StreamAMG’s Chief Strategy Officer, said “Netball and women’s sport are seeing unprecedented growth, and we’re delighted to help accelerate this further by streaming content directly to fans around the world.”

The INF will use StreamAMG’s end-to-end video services to livestream concurrent matches, and manage on demand video content. The end-to-end OTT solution will combine two of StreamAMG products to form a powerful system for global video delivery:

- MediaPlatform is StreamAMG’s core online video platform, optimised for flexible management and global delivery of live and on demand video at scale.
- CloudMatrix enables content owners to create custom fan experiences, playlists and box-sets according to geographic, timezone, and a variety of user preferences.
