Frontier Communications announced that it recently launched Game On!, original video productions featuring some of the country’s premier high school football games. The series continues October 21 with a game between Escambia County vs. Monroe County in Atmore.

Frontier is partnering with MaxPreps.com, the online high school sports leader, to capture contests in 7-10 minute “condensed games.” The videos, shot in select Frontier markets, will feature game highlights, key plays and player and coach interviews. The games will be available on demand 24 hours after the final whistle for free viewing exclusively at www.myfitv.com/GameOn.

On game days, Frontier employees will be on site to cheer on their children and local teams and distribute prizes and giveaways for football fans. “We are thrilled to bring this program to our communities,” said Cereal Daniel, Alabama General Manager for Frontier. “High school football is a real passion in the communities we serve. ‘Game On!’ is a great way to be a part of the excitement at these local events and let fans and faraway friends and family watch key matchups online. It’s a program where everyone wins.”
