What's a NET10? No-Contract Phone Leader Looks to Score Major Visibility in Arena Football League's 25th Season

America's No-Contract Wireless Provider is Major Partner of All 23 "Arena Football Friday" Games Broadcast on NFL Network

MIAMI, March 9, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- When football fans tune in Friday night at 8 p.m. EST to "Arena Football Friday" on the NFL Network, many of them will be asking themselves:  "What's a NET10?  Is it a sports drink?  Is it a action movie?  Is it a new tablet computer?"

Those questions will be asked because America's no-contract wireless provider NET10 is going to be extremely visible in literally scores of places – on helmets, uniforms, announcer microphones, video replays, dasher boards alongside the field, during the half-time contest, as well as in TV spots – when the Arena Football League (AFL) 25th season kicks off tonight with the Pittsburgh Power taking on the Orlando Predators from the Amway Center in Orlando, Fla.

The primary game partner status for NET10 with the Arena Football League will be visible to the public for the first time tonight on the nationally broadcast Pittsburgh-Orlando game.   NET10 is the official wireless partner of the AFL and "Arena Football Friday" broadcasts.

AFL Commissioner Jerry B. Kurz said:  "We are thrilled to partner with NET10 for the 2012 season. The advantages of this partnership are endless for both parties and we look forward to building this relationship with NET10."

A spokesperson for NET10 said:  "We're excited to be part of the 25th AFL season and look forward to showing the AFL fan base how NET10 can them save money by providing top tier wireless service with today's latest cellular phones without the cost, hassles and restrictiveness of a long-term contract with a big penalty."

NET10 offers customers flexible spending options for wireless service on America's best networks, without the need to sign a long term contract.  As part of this partnership, NET10 has teamed up with RadioShack and will offer unique consumer product promotions highlighting NET10 in the AFL context.

Along with being the presenting partner of "Arena Football Friday" broadcasts, NET10 will power the AFL's Dream Team. The NET10 AFL Dream Team will consist of one dancer from each team, voted on by fans on ArenaFootball.com. The NET10 AFL Dream Team will perform at numerous events leading up to and during Arena Bowl XXV in New Orleans on August 10, 2012.

The NET10 Call to the Booth will also be featured during the 2012 season. During all reviewable plays, coaches will be eligible to make two NET10 Calls to the Booth in a single game.

Additionally, NET10 will sponsor all coaches' headsets and be featured on the jerseys of the 17 AFL teams.

As the AFL enters its 25th season, coined the "Year of the Fan," NET10 will serve as a leader in numerous fan promotions and giveaways throughout the season. NET10 is also set to reveal other fan incentives as the 2012 AFL season draws near.
