Jump to ProvidersWhere to Watch Houston Sports Teams
You’ll find most of Houston’s local games on local channels. Whether you want to watch the Rockets or Astros, you can tune in to AT&T SportsNet to catch what’s going down at the Toyota Center and Minute Maid Park. And if you can’t make it to the NRG Stadium (or just don’t want to get stuck finding parking), you can usually find Houston Texans games on CBS or FOX.
For Dynamo games in the BBVA Compass Stadium, go to KUBE57 for English commentary or UniMás Houston for Spanish analysis. LIFETIME and ESPNEWS spotlight NWSL (National Women’s Soccer League) games on occasion, but you’ll usually find Dash games streaming on the official NWSL web page.
High school sports fans can watch the biggest local games on KUBE57.
