Support Boston's First Women's Sports Bar

Donation protected
Boston's first fully dedicated women's sports bar is coming soon and we need your support!

Few bars in Boston prioritize women’s sports — we’re here to change that. In a city passionate about sports, there are zero bars solely focused on broadcasting women’s games and only a limited number of venues identified as inclusive viewing spaces. This business isn’t just about a hospitality venture; it’s a movement toward changing who sports culture is built for–and who gets to feel at home in it.

Having a space dedicated to hosting women’s sporting events is critical to the fabric of their continued success. Our team is raising funds to bring this dream to life and we hope you’ll join us!



Our Story

It all started with a group chat — green bubbles lighting up during March Madness 2022. Our crew of athletes, educators, leaders, planners and fans - swapped brackets, shared hot takes, and engaged in friendly banter—all fueled by our love of the game. We came together for one thing: the NCAA Women’s Final Four.

As time moved on, the exchange turned into traditions—watch parties, annual meetups, late-night debates not just about who would win, but why it mattered. Why weren’t there more spaces where women’s sports took center stage? Why did we always have to ask to turn on the sound?

For over a year now, our passionate team—known to many in our community as Watch With Us Boston —has been bringing fans together through watch parties and sports-focused events across the city and beyond. We’ve felt the energy, the need, the hunger for a space where women’s sports aren’t the afterthought—they're the main event. We are grateful to the community partners and supporters who have joined us in our efforts to create these necessary spaces.

Now, we are gearing up for something even bigger! Our team, turned ownership group, founded BOS IX, LLC, an independently owned and operated franchisee of The Sports Bra . As an independently owned and operated franchisee, BOS IX, LLC is raising funds to open The Sports Bra Boston to bring the city the first dedicated space to celebrate women's sports. Our goal? To bring this powerful vision of a home for the fans, the players, the dreamers, and the doers, to life!

It’s more than a bar. It’s a long-overdue space where the love of the game meets the power of belonging.
