Whoopi Goldberg launches All Women’s Sports Network with JungoTV

Whoopi Goldberg has partnered with JungoTV to launch the All Women’s Sports Network, a global media channel dedicated exclusively to showcasing women’s sports.

The offering is available in the U.S. via Vizio’s WatchFree+ service on Channel 1367 and on Jio TV and Jio TV+ in India, Evision in the Middle East and and Jungo Pinoy in the Philippines.

Health care system CommonSpirit Health is the premiere brand partner in the U.S. market.

AWSN launches with a handful of content licensing deals already in place:

• Union of European Football Associations (UEFA)
• Premiere Ligue (D1 Arkema)
• International Basketball Federation (FIBA)
• Women’s Football Alliance (WFA)
• International Judo Federation (IJF)
• Women’s National Basketball League (WNBL)
• Hockey One League (Field Hockey)
• OBOS Damallsvenskan (Football)

The network plans to air 2,000 hours of live, first-run sports in the final months of 2024 and into 2025.

On Nov. 13, 2024, the network launches with live WNBL basketball and Hockey One League women’s games. The network will also air FIBA 3×3 Marseille finals and OBOS Damallsvenskan women’s football (soccer) matches later.

“The world is finally recognizing the incredible female athletes who have always been here but were not given the exposure they deserved. Bringing these athletes, teams, and leagues to over 2 billion people is historical. AWSN is a channel where girls and women can see themselves, where aspiration is transformed into performance, and competitiveness is celebrated. Because ‘When She Wins, We Win’,” said Goldberg, who is billed as co-founder of the network, in a statement.

“The opportunity to bring dedicated coverage of women’s sports to a global audience is long overdue,” said George Chung, co-founder of AWSN and JungoTV CEO, in a statement. “Women’s athletics has grown exponentially, and there hasn’t been a single platform committed to showcasing these incredible stories, athletes, and events year-round. With this new network, we are proud to give women’s sports the visibility they deserve, creating a space where fans can engage with the athletes and teams they love.”
