What wonderful news for everyone who loves sport! For the very first time, Sky Sports has become the number one digital destination for sport across the UK. This fantastic achievement marks a record-breaking 2015 across all platforms, showing just how much people are enjoying the latest ways to watch their favourite games.
As the habits of sports fans continue to evolve in exciting new directions, Sky Sports has set incredible new records for users of their award-winning digital and on-demand services. Viewers enjoyed more sport than ever before, with over 60,000 hours of content broadcast across seven channels throughout the year. The online community has grown massively, with online video views increasing by approximately 175% to reach just under 300 million by December.
On-demand usage has also seen a considerable rise, with a total of 20 million downloads of highlights, magazine shows, and short-form programmes. This is a significant jump from just over 13 million at the same stage last year, proving that innovation is making it easier than ever to catch up on the action. The schedule was particularly special for women's sport, featuring coverage on over 270 days. This included historic firsts such as broadcasting every ball of the Women's Ashes, every shot from the Solheim Cup, and every England goal at the Netball World Cup.
Looking ahead, there is even more great sport to look forward to in 2016. Fans can anticipate all four of golf's Majors for the first time, the Ryder Cup, and more live Premier League games than ever before. The digital platforms will also feature near-live clips, alongside exciting events like the ICC World Twenty20, England rugby's tour of Australia, and the ATP World Tour Finals.
It has been a year filled with memorable moments, from England's thrilling Ashes victory and Lewis Hamilton's third Formula 1 World Championship title to Chelsea's Premier League and Capital One Cup double. With such a positive outlook and so much to celebrate, there has never been a better time to get involved. If you need help finding the right channel or service to enjoy all this fantastic sport, our friendly team is here to assist you.
