This post will guide you through the installation process of Sportowa TV Addon on Kodi. The detailed instructions provided here work on all the Kodi devices such as Computers, FireStick, Mobiles, Raspberry Pi and more.
It is being said that Sportowa TV is a fork of the very popular SportsDevil addon. I am not entirely sure though. However, Sportowa TV does look like a decent option to watch sports content, especially since the performance of SportsDevil is only declining by the day.
Sportowa TV does not have an as diverse line up of streaming categories as SportsDevil. But, it still has plenty of meat for those who like to stream sports on Kodi. A lot of streaming links worked while I tested this addon. There were some that did not stream though. Give it a try. You might even like it.
Kodi Addons / builds offer unlimited streaming content, but could also get you into legal trouble if caught streaming free Movies / TV shows / Sports. Kodi users are strongly advised to always connect a VPN while streaming online. A good Kodi VPN hides your identity, bypasses government surveillance, geo-blocked content, and ISP throttling (which also helps in buffer-free streaming).
I use ExpressVPN which is the fastest and most secure VPN. It is very easy to install on any device including Amazon FireStick. You get 3-months free and save 49% on its annual plans. Also, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied, you can always ask for a refund.

Before you start streaming with Kodi Addons / Builds, I would like to warn you that everything you stream on Kodi is visible to your ISP and Government. This means, streaming copyrighted content (free movies, TV shows, Sports) might get you into legal trouble.
Kodi users are strongly advised to connect a VPN while streaming. A VPN for Kodi will bypass ISP throttling, Government Surveillance, and geo-restriction on popular Add-ons. I always connect ExpressVPN on all my streaming devices and I suggest you do the same.
ExpressVPN is the fastest and most secure VPN. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Meaning, you can use it freely for the first 30-days and if you are not satisfied with the performance (which is highly unlikely), you can ask for the full refund.
NOTE: We do not encourage the violation of the copyright laws. But, what if you end up streaming content from an illegitimate source unintentionally? It is not always easy to tell the difference between a legit and illegal source.
So, before you start streaming on Kodi, here's how to get VPN protection in 3 simple steps.
Step 1: Get the ExpressVPN subscription HERE.
Step 2: Click HERE to download and install the ExpressVPN app on your device.
Step 3: Click the Power icon to connect a VPN server. That's all. Your connection is now secure with the fastest and best VPN for Kodi.
How to use Sportowa TV Kodi addon: A Quick overview
You may now go back to the main window of Kodi from where you can access Sportowa TV addon by selecting Add-ons option in the left sidebar menu. You will find the Sportowa TV icon in the Video add-ons section. Alternatively, you may click Add-ons instead of selecting it and then select Video-addons on the following window.
When you open the Sportowa TV Kodi addon for the first time, you might be prompted to install an additional addon. Go ahead and click Yes to install it
The main window of Sportowa TV addon looks like this:
As I write, there are 7 categories you may explore for sports content: Sports 365 Live, Live Looker, LiveTV.sx, TVP Sport, Crickfree, Strims World, Live Channels.
You may find more nested categories within each category.
What you now simply need to do is pick the category you want to stream with and start watching your favorite sports videos.
Verdict
I kept an eye on Sportowa TV Kodi addon for a couple of days before giving it my final say. I like this addon because it gives me decent streaming choices. It covers a wide range of sports.
The addon also streams live sports. Thankfully, it lines up the upcoming live streams well ahead of their broadcast. However, I don’t find Sportowa Kodi addon completely reliable. A lot of links start streaming quickly, but there are many that won’t stream at all. There are some empty categories as well. Or, you could say that the addon is not consistent. There are times when it works really great and at others, it is a bit annoying. You may still want to give it a try.
