VANCOUVER – Vancouver Whitecaps FC matches will be available live on Bell mobile phones, marking the first time that matches of a Major League Soccer (MLS) club are available live on mobile.
Bell announced its plans to be the premier founding partner and exclusive mobile video provider of the country’s newest soccer team last June. With TSN already confirmed as the MLS official broadcaster, Whitecaps FC fans will have their choice of watching matches in HD on TSN and TSN2, on the regional broadcast, and now on Bell mobile phones and tablets.
"Being a fan of the Whitecaps just got better with Bell," said Loring Phinney, VP of corporate marketing, in the announcement. "We committed to an enhanced experience for soccer fans when we announced our jersey sponsorship, and we’re thrilled to assist the Whitecaps in being the first MLS club with access to live matches on the screen of the fan’s choice."
Bell mobile customers will also have access to 24 other MLS matches featuring Toronto FC and Vancouver Whitecaps FC, as well as the MLS All-Star Game, MLS Playoffs and the MLS Cup.
