The NWSL has confirmed rumors that the league, which concluded a successful Challenge Cup a month ago, will return to play in local markets. Starting on September 5, the league will conduct what it’s calling a “fall series” in local markets, using geographic groupings to play a total of 18 matches (four per team). Notably, CBS will broadcast an NWSL Game of the Week every Saturday in September, and will broadcast three further Saturday games on the CBS Sports Network in October.
Four more games will be streamed on CBS All Access, where most of the NWSL Challenge Cup was shown.
