Bases Are Loaded With Perform And World Snooker

Aug 07, 2011
World Snooker will be streaming live with Perform, cinching a five year deal with the sports medias company Watch & Bet service. This viable service will reach areas that do not have access to live streaming. World Snooker events will be streamed on a new website for a small monthly fee. Subscribers will have permission to view live matches, content and match game commentaries. Features will include eight hundred World Snooker matches per year. Availability will extend across Watch & Bet and online bookmaker sites through Perform's live broadcast. "This is a hugely significant deal in terms of getting snooker out to the furthest corners of the globe. Perform are experts on streaming and I have worked with them on other sports including darts, with great success. They will also play a role in the production of content and we have no doubt about their capacity to deliver" commented Barry Hearn, Chairman of World Snooker. Perform's Joint CEO, Oliver Slipper said "We're delighted to add the World Snooker tournaments to our portfolio of LIVESPORT events and across Watch&Bet. These platforms provide snooker with an opportunity to reach millions of fans globally and also provide an opportunity to commercialise content in regions and sectors that were not previously available."
