Sugar Land Skeeters select Windstream to provide stadium internet and TV Service

As part of the partnership with the Sugar Land Skeeters, Windstream is providing two 1Gig Internet circuits as well as TV service to the stadium. Skeeters fans will now be able to access free Wi-Fi to meet the growing demand for in-stadium wireless access in the stands, concession area, club level or other suites.

“We are excited to partner with Kinetic by Windstream,” said Scott Podsim, vice president of sales for the Sugar Land Skeeters. “The new technology will give our fans an out-of-the park experience.”

“Windstream’s Gig Internet service provides the high-speed connectivity that allows us to optimize the game-day experience at the stadium,” says Daniel Ferguson, president of operations for Windstream in Texas.

Kinetic by Windstream TV comes with HD channels for brighter, crisper and more detailed visuals than ever before. Fans will never miss a moment of the game wherever they are in the stadium.

“In a time where being connected is more important than ever, Windstream is focused on making sure our network is reliable and strong,” adds Ferguson.
