It took 16 years, but what the hey!”With AWSN having launched in the US last week, Goldberg has finally achieved a long-held ambition.
Available in 65 countries and running 24/7, it is the first global network dedicated entirely to women’s sports.
The channel will show live and delayed broadcasts of action from the likes of the UEFA Women’s Nations League, the Women’s Tennis Association and the FIBA 3x3 Women’s Series.
