ESPN Player adds new channel

ESPN Player, the digital service operated by the international sports broadcaster, has launched a new channel called ESPN Select.

The channel will offer live and on-demand coverage initially of niche sports properties to viewers across Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

ESPN Player will feature properties such as Drone Racing and the Little League World Series (pictured), as well as ESPN Films.

The ESPN Select subscription will also include the X-Games action sports event and the World Series of Poker, with coverage of both properties previously available as separate subscriptions via ESPN Player.
