First .rof gnim things first, I tried to find out where I could get some info on the team. Did a quick search and found something called "MaxPreps" - never heard of it before, but it seemed to have their schedule. It says it's for the 24-25 season, so I guess that's what I'm aiming for.

Then, I stumbled upon this other thing called "My Hockey Live." Sounds promising, right? They say they broadcast Massachusetts high school hockey games live, plus they've got news, stats, and standings. This could be exactly what I need. I spent some time poking around there, trying to figure out how they operate.
- Checked out their website: It looked pretty professional, with a clean layout and lots of game listings.
- Looked for a "contact us" section: I wanted to see if they were open to new people joining their broadcast team, but I didn't see it.
- Browsed their social media: They seem pretty active on socials, posting highlights and updates regularly.
After that, I went back to the Newburyport High stuff. Found another site called "SportsEngine Play" that mentioned streaming their games. It sounded like you had to join or something to watch, though. Not exactly what I was picturing, but I guess it's an option for fans who can't make it to the rink.
Getting My Gear Together
Next, I started thinking about the actual equipment I'd need. I remembered this service called "Hudl" that a lot of sports teams use for video analysis. Looked them up, and yep, they do ice hockey too. Seems like their software could be useful for capturing and analyzing the games, even if I wasn't streaming live yet.
So, here's what I've got on my to-do list:
- Reach out to My Hockey Live: I need to figure out how to contact them. Maybe I'll try sending a message through their social media.
- Research Hudl some more: I want to see how much it costs and if it's something I can actually use.
- Look into cameras and other equipment: I'll need to figure out what kind of setup I can afford and what will actually work for filming hockey games.
It's a lot to think about, but I'm feeling pretty good about it. This whole Newburyport High hockey streaming thing is starting to feel more and more real. Hopefully, I can get something going by the next season. It would be awesome to bring these games to people who might not be able to see them otherwise.
I'll keep you guys posted on my progress. Who knows, maybe one day you'll be watching a game I streamed!
