NWSL Scores Streaming Deal with Roku
26 Aug
Summary
- NWSL partners with Roku for Sunday night matches.
- Games will stream on the free Roku Sports Channel.
- Deal replaces previous partnership abruptly ended.
The National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) has announced a new media partnership with Roku, its exclusive streaming home for Sunday night matches. Starting August 30, 2026, eight NWSL games will be broadcast on the free Roku Sports Channel. This agreement expands significantly in 2027, featuring 25 games on the platform throughout the season.
This new deal provides a crucial replacement after the league abruptly ended its contract with Victory+ last month. Financial terms were not disclosed, but Roku was chosen for its vast reach and ability to make NWSL games easily discoverable. This move is expected to grow the league's audience by reaching both existing fans and new viewers.
The NWSL's partnership with Victory+ began earlier in 2026 and was intended to accommodate the league's increased number of teams and games. Following the termination, matches were temporarily moved to the NWSL+ service.
Existing national broadcast agreements with CBS Sports, ESPN, Prime Video, and Scripps Sports' ION remain unaffected. The first broadcast on Roku will be Seattle Reign FC versus the Houston Dash.
