Four USWNT Games Against Canada Will Be Aired This December
NBC Sports Network and Universal Sports Network are slated to broadcast 4 games between the U.S. Women’s National Team and Canada’s women’s team this month, beginning tonight with a game in Calgary. The games will highlight the growing rivalry between the two countries as they meet for their last matches before facing off at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi this February.
Each network will air two games. NBCSN will broadcast the games on American soil, while the remaining two games taking place in Canada can be seen on Universal Sports Network. The United States games (taking place on Dec. 20 in Grand Forks, N.D., and Dec. 28 in St. Paul, Minn.) are part of the USWNT “Bring on the World Tour,” which seeks to prepare Team USA for their Olympic run. Team Canada’s home games will take place on Dec. 12 (tonight!) in Calgary, Alberta, and Dec. 30 in Toronto, Ontario.
Both US games will also be streamed live to desktops, mobile devices and tablets via NBC Sports Live Extra, while the Canadian games will stream on UniversalSports.com and on the Universal Sports Live App.
