‘We created Apple Sports to give sports fans what they want – an app that delivers incredibly fast access to scores and stats,” said Eddy Cue, Apple’s senior vice president of Services, who added that the app makes it easy for users to stay up to date with their favorite teams and leagues.

Apple Sports will allow users to follow leagues in season, which include the Major League Soccer (MLS), National Basketball Association (NBA),
