  • ESPN Star Sports (or ESS and stylized as ESPN STAR Sports) is a joint venture between The Walt Disney Company (through ESPN Inc. , which it directly owns) and News Corporation (through Star TV, which it directly owns). The venture operates 17 ESPN and STAR Sports branded networks throughout Asia, transmitting in 5 languages. The networks broadcast various local and international sporting events, and also local editions of SportsCenter for China, Hong Kong, India, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. ESPN Star Sports also operates a 24-hour Cricket channel, STAR Cricket. Star Sports launched STAR Sports Thailand on Monday August 4, 2008 exclusively for Thai viewers. ESPN Star Sports is currently in the process of down-linking of their new channel: "ESPNews India" to India. ESPN Star Sports also has Asia's leading Event Management team that has been successfully staging large-scale sporting events across Asia. The Event Management team is a completely integrated events group that manages concept creation, sponsorship, marketing, PR, TV broadcast, operations, and logistics for clients. Events currently in their portfolio include the X Games Asia, 9 Ball Tour, KL World 5's Futsal, Cartier Polo, Formula Drift Singapore, Nations Cup Netball, Indian Hockey League, and the World Pool Championship. One of the biggest successes for the Event Management team was the creation of the Premier Hockey League (PHL) in India. PHL is a professional league competition for field Hockey clubs in the top division of the Indian hockey system, though there has always been strong foreign representation among the players. PHL is a joint venture between ESPN Star Sports and the erstwhile Indian Hockey Federation (IHF) but with the suspension of the IHF on April 28 2008, the future of PHL remains uncertain.
