Czechia has a long international football history dating back to the early 20th century, when the country first competed as the Bohemian national team and later as Czechoslovakia. Since the 1990s, the team has been competing as the Czech Republic, and (unlike Slovakia) it has yet to advance past the Women’s World Cup qualifiers. The last time Czech football fans got to see their national team on the FIFA stage was Chile 1962.
As can be expected from a country with such a long football history, the beautiful game is more than just a national pastime; it is a tradition deeply rooted in Czech culture, and this is clearly reflected in the number of options to watch FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 action.

Women’s World Cup TV Channels in Czechia

In essence, if you own a television set equipped with an analog or digital tuner, you are expected to pay about $5.80 per month for the right to receive any kind of signal, including public, private, commercial, satellite, cable, and even IPTV.
In Czechia, two national channels will broadcast the matches of World Cup FIFA 2023:
- Česká Televize (CT)
- TV Nova
CT is a public television network that operates in a capacity similar to what the BBC provides in the United Kingdom. Assuming you have paid for the television license, which most cable and satellite TV providers include on their monthly subscription bills, you are entitled to watch all matches on channels CT1 and CT2, which are still available for analog standard definition television tuners.
TV Nova, a hip and modern Czech broadcaster, share the FIFA broadcasting rights with CT for all live matches from Australia & New Zealand.
