Pluto TV is partnering with the All Women’s Sports Network (AWSN), launching a 24/7 stream available on the ad-supported streaming television (FAST) service in Canada, the UK, the Nordics, and the U.S.
AWSN’s dedicated Pluto TV channel will feature over 2,500 hours of live women’s sports annually, including games from the Athletes Unlimited Softball League; FIBA 3×3; FIBA 3XBA (a 3×3 basketball series featuring standout WNBA and NCAA talent); WNBL Basketball; H1 Field Hockey; WFA Tackle Football; ECC-W, Women’s European Cricket Championship; DGPT Pro Disc Golf Tour; WFTDA-sanctioned Roller Derby; and Women’s Football Weekly, featuring the latest highlights from Serie A Italy, Bundesliga, Division I Féminine (French Premier League); and the Barclays Women’s Championship.
Co-founded by Whoopi Goldberg and L.A.-headquartered sports and entertainment provider Jungo TV, AWSN was created to provide a platform for women athletes with a goal to turn visibility into opportunity.
“I’m excited to see AWSN grow and reach audiences across the U.S. and new global markets through Pluto TV,” said Goldberg in an announcement. “For far too long, incredible women athletes have been competing at the highest levels without the recognition they deserve. AWSN is here to change that. It’s not just a network—it’s a platform that turns visibility into opportunity, where ambition and performance take centre stage, and where young girls and women can see themselves reflected in the power and potential of elite competition.”
“This is a new era for women’s sports, and the appetite for this content is increasing across the globe,” added Katrina Kowalski, Senior Vice President, International Content Strategy & Acquisitions at Pluto TV. “Sharing the mission to spotlight and uplift these incredible women’s sport and the extraordinary athletes who compete in multiple leagues with AWSN is a testament to our commitment to delivering compelling, diverse content that feeds fandom and gives space to all sports. With AWSN, we’re empowering our viewers to witness the talent, intensity, and passion of women’s sports like never before.”
