Why are so many WNBA games starting so early on Wednesday? Here’s the answer.

There are so many WNBA games that start early on Wednesday, and if you’re here, you’re probably wondering one thing: WHY?!

The answer is simple. It’s for the kids. No, really. IT IS.

Any time there is a WNBA game during the week that is scheduled to start really early or seemingly in the middle of the day, it’s so that kids who love the WNBA can attend a game.

You might see these days often referred to as “camp days” because so many kids who are attending summer camps are traveling to see their favorite players ball out in person. (See the quick video below.)
