NPLTV prepares for Easter launch!

A unique new video and match statistics system, NPLTV powered by Pitchero Play is set to be rolled out across the EVO-STIK NPL next season following a pilot launch at all top flight fixtures over the Easter weekend.

Developed by Pitchero, the EVO-STIK NPL’s official website provider, the revolutionary new video app powering the system is being trialled at all 24 fixtures taking place on Saturday and Easter Monday.

From 5.15pm on Saturday, viewers will be able to watch match highlights from the day’s action. As part of the new system, fans will also be able to follow live updates from every fixture on new match day pages that are going live on the EVO-STIK NPL’s official website this weekend.

And NPLTV powered Pitchero Play is set to raise the coverage bar even higher on Easter Monday. Following Saturday’s initial trials, fans will be able to watch video in-play highlights from the day’s 12 Premier Division games with the footage appearing within minutes of the action taking place on the pitch.

Using digital cameras equipped with optical zoom and supplied by Pitchero after being armed with their custom-built app, Pitchero's system will allow clubs to collect high-quality 30 second highlight snippets as they happen to share with their supporters and the world via the EVO-STIK NPL's website.

A Pitchero spokesman said: "Every Premier Division game over the Easter weekend will be filmed using Pitchero Play, giving fans an unparalleled level of coverage and access to over 2,000 minutes of football.

"With Pitchero Play, all the goals, chances and howlers will be beamed from pitchside to the EVO-STIK's website as they happen on the pitch so fans won't miss a thing from the busy Easter weekend. It means that if the family have got you tied up this weekend, or you've missed a goal at the other end of the ground, don't worry, just check into the EVO-STIK site where we'll have all the action."

The spokesman added: "Our match centre will also be featuring the new match day pages for each of the 12 Saturday and 12 Monday fixtures in the Premier Division as well as video highlights so we're really excited to trial our new video app and delighted to be bringing in an unprecedented level of coverage with NPLTV powered by Pitchero on a weekend as vital as Easter."
