Al Jazeera's push into French sports broadcasting is getting underway. Their new channel bein Sport HD1 is now testing in the clear on 13 east with both french and english audio available. Be interesting to see if the French market is enough for them for now, or if they will make a play for a Premier league package.

bein Sport HD1 are broadcasting the Catalan Dragons v Wigan Warriors Superleague game in Montpelier on 9th June. We should see, at least, highlights of that on Sky Sports.
