Quipu TV to livestream Scotland vs SA test series

Glasgow-based production company QuipuTV will be
providing a live online stream of five women’s hockey test matches
between Scotland and South Africa, beginning this Sunday, May 27,
at Clydesdale Western Hockey Club in Glasgow.
QuipuTV’s internet TV coverage of the matches will
be globally available through the websites of Scottish Hockey and
South African Hockey Association. The live coverage will be
free-to-air, with a VoD of each match available shortly after for
$0.99 USD.
Although in 18th position, currently six places
below South Africa in the world rankings, Scotland will provide
tough opposition for the tourists as part of their pre-Olympic UK
tour and in fact beat South Africa 2-0 in their test series last
July.
Stuart Moffatt of Scottish Hockey said: “Scotland’s
women have been on an upward curve recently, recording a bronze
medal at the FIH Champions Challenge and winning the EuroHockey
Nations Championsip II last summer. We’re looking forward to seeing
them compete with South Africa and excited that QuipuTV can take
these matches to a gobal audience.”
Jack McGill, managing director of QuipuTV, added:
“It’s fantastic to be able to provide a platform for Scottish
hockey to be seen around the world and we’re inviting all hockey
fans to be part of our coverage through Twitter (#SASCOhockey) and
Facebook.”
All five matches will be played on the new
international pitch at Clydesdale’s Titwood ground and the first
match will also mark the official opening of the new facilities at
