Where to Watch Games: 2025 NSL Broadcast Information

How do I watch live matches from the 2025 NSL Regular Season?

Good news, you can watch the NSL on TSN, TSN+, CBC, CBC Gem, RDS, Radio-Canada, and NSL.ca - it’s a bit like Canadian weather: all over the place, but it works.

TL;DR? Just download our broadcast calendar here and it’ll pop right into your Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook - wherever you need it.

Okay, you really wanna know how to watch? Here’s how it all breaks down:

🖥️ Traditional TV
  • Select games will air on TSN (in English) and CBC (in English).
  • En français, every Montréal Roses match will be on RDS or Radio-Canada—except for one little rebel on May 18, which will stream exclusively on Tou.tv.
📲 Streaming

English language games not airing on traditional TV will be streamed in pairs: either on CBC Gem and NSL.ca at the same time, or on TSN+ and NSL.ca at the same time - so no matter the combo, you won’t miss a match.

  • CBC Gem and NSL.ca
  • TSN+ and NSL.ca

Oh right - and don’t forget that one little rebel of a Montréal Roses game on May 18, streaming only on ICI Tou.tv. Mark it, remember it, whisper it to your group chat.

Check the schedule to know where each match is available.

📺 Watching from the U.S.?

Select matches will be available on ESPN+ in the United States. So if you're cheering from across the border, you won’t miss a moment.

The matches that are NOT on ESPN+  can be viewed from the US on NSL.ca 

🌍 Watching from Around the World?

International fans: we love you, we see you, and we’re working on bringing NSL to your screens soon. Global viewership is absolutely on our to do list - right alongside building the top women’s league in the world. The good news is we're pretty close on both. In the meantime, you can watch on nsl.ca.

So... maybe it wasn’t such a TL;DR after all? You made it to the end. 

In case you forgot (hey, we’ve been talking for a while), here’s that handy schedule page and calendar tool again. They’ll keep you sorted so you can spend less time figuring out where to watch—and more time actually watching.
