You only have to look at the crowds at women’s games. What I will say to people if they want the women’s game to grow. Get off your ***** and attend the games Women’s Sport is definitely a massive growth area, just look at the historic tv deal below. The Women’s World Cup is due to have extensive tv coverage, hopefully it goes ahead as now planned and we get regular club games broadcast on the back of that. 22nd March 2021, it was announced that the Women’s Super league had signed a ’landmark’ broadcasting deal with Sky and the BBC, two of the biggest television broadcasters in the UK. Worth up to £24 million over the course of the next 3 seasons, this is the largest commercial agreement in women’s football to date. The financial boost, along with the increase in public exposure that this will provide, is ground-breaking. At least 35 and up to 44 matches a season will be broadcast on Sky starting in August, and between 18 and 22 will be shown on BBC One and BBC Two.

Just saying. Harry you've got to remember it's that time of year when Sky show championship rugby to justify owning the championship TV rights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blues Ox Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 1 hour ago, Sir Kevin Sinfield said: I’d be really interested to know how the Championship play off viewing figures compare to the Women’s Super League play off viewing figures. Hopefully they becomes available to us. Women’s sport is a massive growth area and has more potential of getting a regular tv slot than 2nd division rugby league imo. Id be happy just to see how they compare to some of the normal SL fixtures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you expecting a similar deal for RL ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great copy and paste- more importantly do you have a copy and paste to hand dealing with woman's RL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Assuming its freeview) If you have Sky minus the Sports channel, they are on Sports Mix a free sports channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futtocks Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Just checked the schedule page on a whim, and I notice that the Fox League channel are showing both today's Championship Playoffs for (insomniac) Australian viewers.
