OleOle’s Fantasy Football (Soccer) game enables fans to select and manage a dream-team of players during the 2008/09 season and compete with their friends

Beverly Hills, Calif. -- 29 July 2008 -- OleOle, the worldwide leading social media site for football fans, today made its social Fantasy Football game available to OleOle members.

Unlike any other fantasy football games where players are on their own, OleOle’s Fantasy Football game is integrated into OleOle’s social football community so players can interact with each other as they make trades, do player research, and check player history. Each player’s personalized home page has a Fantasy Football widget where they can keep tabs on their team’s progress at a glance.

• On the OleOle website, they can catch up on the latest rumours, transfers and stats and use OleOle’s Fantasy Stats Centre.
• Fans can also setup private mini-leagues so they can compete directly against their friends. OleOle groups compliment this functionality so mini-leagues can stay in touch with each other and have private discussions about their teams, strategies, and friendly wagers.

LOS ANGELES, 10 August, 2007 -- The online football community OleOle, has launched the world’s first Pan-European fantasy football game: the European Super League. OleOle members can pick from thousands of players from any team in the top leagues in England, Spain, Italy, France, and Germany, mixing them up to create fantasy teams that play against each other. There are several prizes to be won. The European Football League top prize is a ticket to a European league final, with flight and accommodation fully paid. Members are eligible to win Sony PS3s, PSPS, iPods, jerseys, videogames, and OleOle merchandise. There are also individual games for the leagues in England, Spain, Italy, France and Germany, with accompanying prizes.

The site is free to use, and emphasizes participation of the fan community as the key factor of its success. Users send in reports, videos, and blogs, which are then evaluated by other users. Since its launch in March 2007, the site has grown to almost 8,000 users from around the world. It covers all major football leagues and reports live scores from each continent.

OleOle offers international football fans a meeting ground in their interactive online community from around the world. The site uses new generation web tools to create a complete home for football fans on the internet, featuring blogs, customised news feeds, forums, Podcasts, video streaming, social networks, photos, and many other features that members can use to generate the content featured on this site. OleOle.com awards its members with opportunities to be a part of the “real world,” by giving them press passes to report on big events.
