The National Women’s Soccer League is once again teaming up with Fox Sports to broadcast six games during the 2016 season. These will include three regular matches, two semi-finals and the championship. All matches can be seen on FS1 and will also be streamed live on Fox Sports GO, FOXSportsGo.com and FOX Soccer 2Go.
In a press release sent out earlier today NWSL Commisioner Jeff Plush praised FOX Sports for their support of women’s soccer, going on to say, “It is extremely important for the development of the league for our fans to have access to games on national television, especially our playoffs and championship match.”
Looking to benefit from the typical post Olympics bump the matches will be aired in September after the Rio games end. Chicago, Portland and Houston will host one game a piece with the semi-finals and final schedules to be announced at the end of the regular season.
Television schedule:
Wednesday September 7th Chicago Red Stars Vs. FC Kansas City 8pm (EST)
Sunday September 11th Portland Thorns Vs. Western New York Flash 9:30 (EST)
Sunday September 25th Houston Dash Vs. Seattle Reign FC 9:30 (EST)
*Semi-finals and final TBA
