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!

    First off, the US is a Spanish speaking country. There’s 3 NCAA Div 2 schools in the US territory of Puerto Rico. None play football, but they all have basketball. And there are many NCAA football games broadcast in Spanish – you just have to look on the team’s site.

    And it looks like Mexico has an American football league to follow: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Mexican_collegiate_American_football_programs

      Yeah, I know we’re a Spanish speaking country. My team doesn’t have a Spanish broadcast. There’s a few I found for college football, but we’re in off season and I was thinking they might be currently playing in other countries.
