Fox Soccer (formerly Fox Soccer Channel) is an American television specialty channel, owned by News Corporation's Fox Entertainment Group, that specializes in soccer. It formerly broadcast rugby and Australian rules football, but is now dedicated strictly to soccer. Launched on November 1, 1997, when it was originally known as Fox Sports World, the channel took its current name in 2005, later dropping the word "channel" from its name on August 13, 2011. In 2006, most non-soccer programming (other than Sky Sports News - see below) was dropped.
