I’m learning Spanish, and I’m getting decent at reading it but I’m trying to immerse myself in it more since I still can’t understand it very well. so I was wondering if I could find something I really enjoy like football and watch it in Spanish. I know the NFL probably has a Spanish football channel but I like college football over the NFL and I would prefer to watch a local Spanish team play and possibly become a fan of that team and follow it.

So if American football is played in a Spanish speaking country can I watch it online somehow and also can I have some suggestions on what team would be fun to watch?

If not football I know they play basketball over there so I’ll take some suggestions for that as well if anyone is interested.

Thank you!

    We might have a league in Australia, but if we do, I’ve never heard of it. Popular might be too strong a word…

      Every single state and the ACT have leagues. I would definitely describe it as popular. NFL games are played on free to air live every week.

        That’s not a metric. There’s a local league for damn near every sport in most developed countries. That doesn’t make the sports popular. It just makes it a sport in a competitive setting.
