Trackchamp to stream League of Ireland games

The Football Association of Ireland has confirmed plans to stream online coverage of every game from the League of Ireland, the top division in the Republic of Ireland, outside of the country from 2016.

Trackchamp, which has become the official video and data partner of the association, will support the streaming coverage.

The deal between the FAI and Trackchamp will run for four years, from 2016 to 2019.

More than 250 League of Ireland games will be streamed online next season.

FAI chief executive John Delaney said: “The introduction of exciting new technologies which will increase global reach and will allow clubs to gather increased technological analysis can only be good for the national game.”
