FA renews Input Media partnership

The Football Association, the sport’s governing body in England, has renewed a deal with London-based production company Input Media.

The deal will run for five years, from 2013-14 to 2017-18.

Under the agreement, Input Media will continue to produce live programming around England internationals at Wembley Stadium for the FA’s international rights-holders, as well as live match coverage, highlights shows and a magazine programme around each round of the FA Cup domestic club competition.

Input Media will also continue to provide its FA Cup “super-feed” featuring several live games for international rights-holders along with a range of digital content.

The FA signed up Input Media as a production partner for the first time in 2008. The deal has been renewed after a “competitive tender,” the FA said.
