Welcome to Women's League!

🎙️Abby Chin and Naoko Funayama achieved the dream. Two women who worked their way up to cover professional sports for more than a decade while building families in Boston — and they both have championship rings to show for it. Now they’re sharing the journey with you by launching Women’s League. The goal is to create a space for real conversations about sports and media while balancing career and family.

Sports broadcasting is without a doubt one of the coolest jobs out there. But, like in sports, it’s not all win streaks and duck boat parades. You have to get creative to make work and life fit. Women’s League features authentic conversations touching on both the triumphs and the struggles, taking you behind the scenes of a fast-paced, high-stakes industry.

Make no mistake, Abby and Naoko aren’t alone. The community of women in sports may be small, but it is mighty. Every woman you see in front of the camera, and working behind it, has a remarkable story of determination, dedication, and perseverance.

Every other week, Abby and Naoko are talking to top women in sports, media, and beyond, sharing untold, behind the scenes stories and valuable insights. In this premiere episode, Abby and Naoko introduce themselves, their vision for the show and a preview of what's to come.
