Everything you need to know about SheBelieves Cup
Why we recommend Max to stream the 2025 SheBelieves Cup
Max is still a solid option for sports because it’s offering the Bleacher Report add-on for free – though the service will likely begin charging for it soon. Right now, Max allows you to stream games – including NBA and NHL playoff games – that appear on TBS, TNT, and truTV, as well as events like the 2025 SheBelieves Cup. A subscription to Max starts at $10 per month with ads.
HBO Max
HBO Max is a subscription video streaming service that gives access to the full HBO library and exclusive Max Originals. There are hubs for content from TLC, HGTV, Food Network, Discovery, TCM, Cartoon Network, Travel Channel, ID, and more. Watch hit series like “The Last of Us,” “House of the Dragon,” “Succession,” “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” and more. Within HBO Max, B/R Sports allows users to watch live NBA, MLB, NHL, March Madness, and NASCAR events.
What other streamers can you use to watch the 2025 SheBelieves Cup?
Since Warner Bros. Discovery has the rights to the entire SheBelieves Cup, Max is the only subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) streamer that will have broadcasts of the matches. However, there are numerous live TV streaming services that will provide access to the games.
If you are looking to go this route, we recommend Sling TV as it is the cheapest way to watch all three Team USA matches in the SheBelieves Cup on a live TV streamer. There are some streamers that will allow you to stream part of the tournament for free (more on that momentarily), but none will reliably let you watch all of Team USA’s games at no cost.
Therefore, we would go with Sling. TBS is available on both of the steamer’s base channel packages, both of which start at $46 per month. Additionally, you can choose watch even more soccer on FS1 with Sling’s Blue plan, or with ESPN on the Sling Orange plan. You can also select to combine them both for $61 monthly. However, currently, Sling is offering customers 50% off their first month of service, so you can watch all three USWNT games on TBS for just $23 while also being able to catch so much more great sports and entertainment options throughout the month.
Sling TV
Sling TV is The Streamable’s choice for cord-cutters on a budget. Sling is a live TV streaming service with multiple channel packages. The $45.99/month Sling Orange plan offers about 30 channels, including Disney Channel and ESPN. The $45.99/month Sling Blue plan offers about 40 channels, including ABC, Fox, and NBC in major markets.
You can combine Orange+Blue for a total of $60.99 / month. Sling also offers many channel add-on packages starting at $6/month.
Can you watch the 2025 SheBelieves Cup for free?
While there are services that will provide free trials when you sign up, they will not be long enough to watch the entire week of action. Hulu + Live TV, DIRECTV STREAM, and YouTube TV all carry TBS and offer free trials, but not all free trials are created equally.
Hulu’s trial is three days, DIRECTV’s is five days, and YouTube’s varies based on a lot of opaque factors. You might be able to snag a trial of up to two weeks (which would let you stream every TBS game in the SheBelieves Cup and more), but you could also get a trial as short as one day.

Since Hulu + Live TV comes with the Disney bundle, which includes Hulu and Disney+ on-demand services and the ESPN+ live and on-demand services, that is your best value, especially when it comes to maximizing sports and soccer watching.
However, if you are just interested in the SheBelieves Cup, DIRECTV STREAM is guaranteed to allow you watch two of Team USA’s games. So if you like the sure thing, we would go that route. Although, you can roll the dice and try your hand with YouTube TV, just be wary that you might not get more than a day or two with its trial offer.
