While details about global streaming have been in short supply, the CBC announced on Wednesday that they would host a live stream of the event that will be free to Canadians.
That includes Match 1, held Thursday and Friday of this week, beginning at 1:45PM Toronto time.
That match will featured Toronto Titans, Aqua Centurions, Energy Standard, and DC Trident. The Titans are the Canadian roster that includes most of the big name Canucks, like, Kylie Masse, Tessa Ciepluca, Kelsey Wog, Kayla Sanchez, Summer McIntosh, Brent Hayden, Cole Pratt, Finlay Knox and Yuri Kisil.
Other Canadians in action in Match 1 include: Mary-Sophie Harvey (Energy Standard) and Bailey Andison (DC Trident) and Rachel Nicol (DC Trident).
Later in the season, Katerine Savard will race for the defending league champion Cali Condors, Sydney Pickrem will race for London Roar, Ingrid Wilm and Javier Acevedo will race for LA Current, and Kierra Smith will race for IRON.
The streaming will be available both on the web, above, for users in Canada, and on the CBC Sports app.
