Nationwide — At 68, Whoopi Goldberg, renowned for her award-winning roles in The Color Purple and Sister Act, has launched a the All Women’s Sports Network, a pioneering network solely dedicated to women’s sports, aiming to reshape how audiences experience women’s athletics.
Despite the rapid growth of women’s sports, coverage remains disproportionately low, with less than 10 percent of media attention. Goldberg’s global sports network is set to change that, marking a transformative moment in media by providing female athletes with the visibility they deserve. This platform is more than just a sports channel; it’s a movement addressing the inequality in sports media representation.
The network will offer extensive coverage across various sports, from basketball and soccer to emerging favorites like skateboarding and surfing. Unlike mainstream sports channels that only feature occasional women’s events, this network will place female athletes in the spotlight 24/7, providing the first-of-its-kind coverage for fans across the globe.
Programming on the network will feature live game broadcasts, detailed analysis, and inspiring documentaries. It aims to capture the full culture of women’s sports, highlighting the determination and discipline behind each athlete’s journey. From pregame preparations to champion-level training routines, the network will immerse viewers in the world of women’s sports.
Goldberg’s platform promises prime-time game coverage, in-depth documentaries, analysis shows, and interactive segments that bring fans closer to the athletes they admire. Series on the evolution of women’s sports and behind-the-scenes glimpses into athletes’ routines will enhance fans’ understanding and appreciation of the dedication these women bring to their sports.
This network is more than a viewing option; it’s a legacy project that seeks to normalize women’s success in sports and inspire the next generation. With increased visibility, young female athletes will see their dreams validated, while seasoned professionals finally gain the spotlight they have long earned. By fostering a community around women’s sports, Goldberg’s network is setting a new standard for sports media.
Scheduled to launch next quarter, Goldberg’s network will be accessible through major cable providers and streaming services worldwide. By centralizing women’s sports content, the network is simplifying how fans follow their favorite athletes and uncover new sports. With Whoopi Goldberg’s commitment to representation, this new venture is more than a business; it’s a movement for equity in sports media that will impact generations to come.
