The year 2010 will become a turning-point in media promotion for our tournament. After a year break we have succeeded to re-establish a key cooperation with the Czech TV - sport Channel ČT4. We have found a new perspective model of co-operation with the new ČT4 editor - Mr. Jiří Ponikelský and we hope to follow it in coming years.
The planned TV coverage is set for our spectators to be able to follow the full progress in the male elite category in the first days and then provide full, live coverage of the final matches. The result is a 60 min daily high-light summaries of the first two days (Thursday and Friday) and 3 live broadcasts starting from Saturday (Male Elite semifinal) to continue on Sunday (Male and Female Elite final games) completed with 30 min summaries from quarterfinal games and second Male Elite semifinal game.
Mr. Jiří Ponikelský commented our cooperation: “Czech Open is one of the most prestigious floorball tournaments in the World and it definitely belongs to the TV Channel ČT4. We are glad to continue with our co-operation from last years.”
Moreover we would like to announce a revolutionary news in the global TV coverage as well!
