FOX revealed its full schedule plans for the 2023 Women’s World Cup down under in Australia and New Zealand. While the actual talent for the coverage is still largely under wraps, American soccer fans at least know how to watch the tournament. In fact, there is a record number of games on FOX, even if most of the kickoff times are early on for US-based audiences.
The 64 games of the 2023 Women’s World Cup stretch from July 20 to Aug. 20. In the United States, each of those games is available on TV. There are 35 games on FS1 and a massive 29 on FOX. That near-30 games on FOX is the most Women’s World Cup games ever on a US English-language broadcast network. Five of those 29 air in primetime in the United States. Then, there are dozens more on weekends.
For those that are away from their TVs during the Women’s World Cup schedule, each contest is streaming via the FOX Sports app. However, this does require a TV subscription, and they are not free to stream.
USWNT gets bonus coverage
In addition to the live broadcasts of games, FOX unveiled its buffer coverage of the Women’s World Cup. Women’s World Cup Live anchors FOX’s coverage of the tournament, with 190 hours of live programming previewing and bridging between games. Then, Women’s World Cup Tonight is the postgame show for every game throughout the tournament.
Social media content is also available, as FOX’s award-winning World Cup Now on Twitter is back. The 132 shows produced 60 hours of content at the 2022 men’s World Cup, and that garnered 88.4 million views on Twitter alone.
The United States has even more coverage of its games at the Women’s World Cup. FOX is denoting a two-hour pregame show to each of the USWNT’s three group stage matches.
FOX crew still to be decided
The names of the talent and broadcasters are still up in the air. FOX said it plans to announce its “elite roster of prominent soccer analysts, hosts, tournament legends and more personalities” in the coming months.
