TV FORMAT & ACCESS
China Central Television (CCTV Sports), the predominant state television broadcaster in mainland China, will be broadcasting the Dragon Boat World Cup through their own network of channels and, similarly to the TV coverage at the 2013 World Nations Championships, Belief Global will be web streaming a global TV presentation of the racing (in English at local Fuzhou time) on the IDBF Livestream player via www.idbfdragonboat.tv and will also host the IDBF TV player at the www.beliefsport.tv website to its own audiences. CCTV's broadcast will go out in Chinese with English subtitles and they will be using the same TV feed but with English commentary for the global web stream broadcast.

The daily sports program will feature coverage of the live racing, a chat room to encourage global interaction and studio interviews with IDBF officials, team coaches, competitors, VIP's and special guests. Richard Smith will be presenting the program together with Race Commentator, Murray Jones, IDBF Official, Winsor Wong and Belief Sport TV Producer, Phil Keeler, with kind technical/equipment support via Peter Tang from Macau.
