How to watch women's soccer on US TV

Looking for how to watch women’s soccer in the US? We’ve got the details of where to find games on both TV and streaming.

Only a few decades ago, women’s soccer was almost non-existent. In 1991, the FIFA Women’s World Cup emerged and ever since, the game has been on the rise.

For years, only a quadrennial frenzy would catch on in the USA as the United States dominated the World Cup. But now the women’s game is stronger than ever before, with numerous high-quality club and international competitions available to US viewers.

The NWSL has finally brought a stable, long-lasting professional league to the US. Big crowds turn out across the country to watch these clubs. Liga MX operates a women’s division as well, lifting the game in the region. And a second American Division One league will arrive in the form of the USL Super League in 2024.

Across the pond, the FA Women’s Super League, Frauen-Bundesliga, Serie A Femminile, Spain’s Liga F, France’s Division 1 Féminine, and the UEFA Women’s Champions League have delivered big matches, with huge clubs, and big crowds in recent years.

And of course, international tournaments like the World Cup and Olympics are bigger than ever.
