Whoopi Goldberg launches global channel dedicated to women’s sports

With the launch of the All Women Sports Network (AWSN), the actress aims to enhance the world of women’s sports

It will be the home for live women’s sports from around the world. From football to basketball, tennis, cricket and curling, if a woman is playing, let’s show it,” he said. Goldberg.

AWSN already operates in Asian countries, such as India, and in regions of the Middle East. In the coming days, the network should also begin broadcasting in the United States.

Currently, the channel offers a diverse program, with matches from the UEFA Women’s Nations League, WTA tennis competitions, American football, beach volleyball, basketball, cricket and table tennis.

Gender equality

The actress highlighted that one of the main objectives of the initiative is to strengthen the visibility and development of women’s sports. In a personal account, she mentioned her childhood frustration at not having the same opportunities as boys in sporting activities.

Since I was a child, I wanted to play sports. My brother played everything, but when it was my turn, they said: ‘Hi, little girl’. That always irritated me,” he shared.

She also commented that the project was an old dream, which she had been working on for 16 years.

I feel this will help show that the brilliance of sports lies in those who play them, regardless of gender. We don’t have that kind of relationship with women’s sports, and I’ve always wanted to change that. Finally, someone listened,” said the actress.
