All Soccer Network Follows South American National Youth Teams as they Compete for a Spot in the 2009 FIFA U-20 and U-17 World Cups

MIAMI, Oct. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- GolTV, the only live bilingual channel delivering 24/7 soccer, announced today that it has scored the exclusive U.S. TV rights to the 2009 U-20, and U-17 CONMEBOL South American Youth Championships.

"The CONMEBOL youth championships offer a sneak peek into the future of professional soccer.

Kicking off in January 2009, GolTV goes to Peru to telecast the 24th Annual "Juventud de America" South American U-20 Youth Championship. Then in March 2009, GolTV will follow the 13th Annual South American U-17 Youth Championships to Chile.

The CONMEBOL youth championships join an exciting GolTV programming lineup for the 2008-2009 season, including coverage of Spain's La Liga and Germany's Bundesliga. GolTV is also the U.S. home to the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifying matches for Italy, Spain and Germany.
