A group of streamers, athletes, and other media personalities are coming together to put a spotlight on women’s sports. The Queens League, an alternative soccer organization led by longtime F.C. Barcelona defender Gerard Piqué, kicked off with its first match on May 6.
The Queens League is the successor to the Kings League, which made a splash earlier this year thanks to its unusual rules and the high-profile owners of its teams. Spanish streamers like Ibai Llanos and TheGrefg (real name David Cánovas Martínez) assembled their own Kings League squads and helped promote the endeavor on their respective streams. Llanos and Cánovas Martínez are known for their record-breaking broadcasts on Twitch.
The Kings League was a smashing success, drawing more than 90,000 fans for its final at Barcelona’s Camp Nou stadium. Less than two months later, top female soccer players from around the world are getting in on the fun.
