The new Team China official website will bring online communication around the seven national football teams to the next level, and will feature in-depth coverage of not just Team related news but also original and exciting behind the scenes stories. A dedicated SOHU reporting team will accompany Team China over the next few years as they prepare for the major football tournaments, ensuring first-hand information is made available to Team China supporters.

The official website offers live match streaming, video clips, an online Team China fan club, prize give-aways, player blogs, mobile content and a wealth of up-to-date stats on matches and training. SOHU reporters will accompany the men’s Olympic Team on their high-profile tour of France and cover in-depth the training camp at Chelsea FC.

CFA General Secretary Xie Ya Long said: “With the FIFA Women’s World Cup and Asian Cup, 2007 is an important year for the Teams’ preparation for next year’s Olympic Games. We are happy to have an ideal partner in SOHU to strengthen our fan community.
