Norwegian public-service broadcaster NRK renewed two vital skiing rights deals last month, agreeing to pay decent increases for both.

Norwegian public-service broadcaster NRK has extended rights deals with the country’s national ski association and Fis, skiing’s global governing body.

The Infront Sports & Media agency has secured fee increases in skiing deals with public-service broadcasters in both Austria and Norway.

Norwegian public-service broadcaster NRK is close to striking a rights deal for events staged by the FIS, the global governing body of skiing, according to the Kampanje news website.

The Fotball Media agency, which distributes the rights for the Tippeligaen on behalf of the Norwegian Football Federation, is prepared to take legal action against public-service broadcaster NRK over alleged copyright infringement of rights to the country’s top division of football.
