WatchSports was created to alleviate media fragmentation issues such as consumer confusion about where to watch and how to access live sports events. The WatchSports software makes it convenient for consumers to find event schedule information and connect to viewing on all their devices.

SportsBubble is proud to partner with stakeholders across the sports media ecosystem.

Our Story

SportsBubble was founded by sports media pioneer, Lydia Murphy-Stephans, after it took her way too long to connect-to-watch to a major sports event on her tablet. The multi-step, time-consuming process was an epiphany moment for the sports media executive.

Lydia knew the experience she had when trying to watch a live sports event on a mobile device was a big consumer and business issue. As a serial problem-solver and entrepreneur, she was determined to make it simpler for everyone to discover, access and engage with sports.

During the company’s nascent Research & Development stage, Lydia consulted with sports, media and technology experts to help shape a solution for both consumers and businesses. Chris Fehring, a former colleague and software engineer, was one of them. Chris joined SportsBubble as co-founder in 2020 and helped Lydia create the WatchSports App, SportsBubble’s first product.
