78Seventy have won a tender process for the multi-year contract to become the IRB’s official on-site broadcast and online video producers for the Junior World Championships. Having covered the tournament for the past 4 years, we’ve now won the race to provide the IRB with a much larger delivery list from 2014 onwards – a full 1 hour Highlights show, online video content plus Rights Holder video provision. We will be travelling to Auckland, New Zealand for the first tournament of this contract in June, which promises to be one of the biggest JWC’s yet.
