Soccer and Fox Soccer Channel Join Forces
Los Angeles, CA – May 22, 2006 – Fox Soccer Channel and the country’s largest youth sports organization -- the United States Youth Soccer Association (US Youth Soccer) – have entered into a sweeping partnership to create programming, marketing and grassroots community initiatives to provide America’s rapidly growing youth soccer community with unprecedented access to their sport.
Fox Soccer Channel becomes the official television partner for US Youth Soccer, a nationwide body with close to one million volunteers, administrators and dedicated coaches; as well as more than 3 million youth players between the ages of five and 19. US Youth Soccer represents the single largest member of the US Soccer Federation, the governing body for soccer in the United States.
Starting Monday, Fox Soccer Channel will kick-off The US Youth Soccer Show, a monthly half-hour US Youth Soccer magazine program. In August the network will also televise the 2006 US Youth Soccer National Championships. Additionally, Fox Soccer Channel will soon launch a series of co-branded minute-long interstitials with coaching and parenting tips, as well as US Youth Soccer public service announcements specially created for Youth Soccer Month each September.
