Chris Condron, head of broadband content at AOL UK said: �We know many of our members are passionate about sport and broadband provides the ideal environment for them to follow their favourite activity online, whether it�s football, cricket, or something a little more adventurous.�
High.tv has broadcast live sports events including the ICC World Climbing Championships from Chamonix, World Cup Mountain biking from Alpes d�Huez and Fort William, Snowbombing from Les Arcs and the Professional Windsurfing Association (PWA) World Cup from Fuerteventura.
According to AOL, it is the first time its members have had access to a scheduled TV channel of this kind. Members can also access video coverage of rugby matches in the Zurich Premiership and Powergen Cup.
