Our Editorial Standards
The modern sports broadcasting landscape is notoriously fractured. Between exclusive streaming deals, aggressive regional blackouts, and last-minute schedule shifts, figuring out where a game is actually airing has become a chore. We built WhereSports to cut through that noise. We don't just list matches; we tell you exactly who holds the legal distribution rights in your specific territory.
We Track Verified Carriage Agreements, Not "Streams"
We do not embed third-party video players, and we do not link to unauthorized streams. Every link on this site points to an official rights holder—whether that’s a linear television network (like Sky Sports, NBC, or CBS) or a direct-to-consumer platform (like DAZN, Peacock, or Fubo).
Unauthorized feeds are unreliable, prone to mid-game shutdowns, and frequently carry malware. More importantly, they do not respect regional blackout rules. We only direct you to platforms that hold the actual, legal distribution rights for your specific market.
Our Verification Workflow (No Blind API Scraping)
Automated data feeds get it wrong constantly. When a primetime game moves from a linear cable channel to a streaming-exclusive app due to a last-minute scheduling conflict, automated scrapers often miss it. Human editors catch it.
-
Cross-Referencing:
We never rely on a single data source. We cross-reference our schedule data against official league press releases, promoter announcements, and network TV guides.
-
Geo-Checking:
Broadcast rights are strictly territorial. A channel that airs a match in the UK might be completely blacked out in the US. We verify which specific platforms hold the rights for each region so you don't buy a subscription that won't work in your living room.
-
Schedule Audits:
Kickoff times shift due to television broadcasting windows and weather delays. Our team updates the schedule daily to reflect these real-time network adjustments.
We Prioritize Accuracy Over Placeholder Pages
We don't publish placeholder pages just to capture search traffic. If a regional broadcaster hasn't confirmed their carriage for a specific event, we leave it blank rather than guessing.
If our database doesn't have a verified rights holder for a specific event in your country, we will explicitly tell you that the broadcast is unconfirmed. Our goal is to be the most accurate tool on your screen, not the largest.
Our Commitment to Financial Transparency
Because we direct fans to paid streaming services and subscription platforms, we hold ourselves to strict financial transparency standards:
-
No Payment Processing:
WhereSports never collects, stores, or processes your credit card or billing information. All subscriptions are handled directly on the official broadcaster's secure website.
-
Verified Links Only:
Our directory is manually audited to ensure every link points to the legitimate, official website of the rights holder (e.g., the real DAZN.com, not a lookalike phishing site).
-
Unbiased Recommendations:
Our broadcast mappings are based purely on official media rights agreements, not on which streaming service pays us the highest referral fee. If a game is on a free-to-air channel in your region, we will list it first.
Our Guarantee to You
If a network is listed, it’s because they hold the verified distribution rights for your territory. We don't guess. If we list a kickoff time, it has been verified against the official network schedule.
If you spot an error, a broken link, or a regional blackout we missed, email us directly at editorial@wheresports.com. We read every email and update the database accordingly.
