New Partnership Brings Live and On-Demand Streaming to Premier Youth Baseball and Softball Facility
HiCast Sports Network, a leading video streaming platform for youth and amateur sports, is proud to announce its latest installation at Sandhills Global Youth Complex (SGYC), which will feature the integration of SingleScore—enabling scorekeepers to control the on-field scoreboard via a mobile app with real-time updates on the livestream. The fixed network at SGYC ensures universal access to all games and activities, making content more accessible for everyone.
Our goal at Sandhills Global Youth Complex is to provide an elite experience for young athletes, and our partnership with HiCast Sports Network is an extension of that mission.”

The $31.5 million nonprofit SGYC will be the first baseball and softball complex of its kind in Nebraska. SGYC will host instructional clinics, camps, games and tournaments for youth from Lincoln, the region, and across the nation on its eight all-turf fields. Additionally, SGYC will serve as the home field for Nebraska Wesleyan University's baseball and softball teams. The University of Nebraska Athletic Department will also utilize one of the fields as a practice facility for the Husker baseball and softball teams.
"Our goal at Sandhills Global Youth Complex is to provide an elite experience for young athletes, and our partnership with HiCast Sports Network is an extension of that mission," SGYC Executive Director Joe Fagler said. "By offering live and on-demand streaming, we are making our facility and its events more accessible to families and fans while creating new opportunities for players to be seen and celebrated."
In addition to delivering a premier viewing experience, HiCast offers a unique revenue-sharing model with its partner venues, allowing facilities to generate additional income from subscription sales and advertising to engage local and regional sponsors while enhancing their value to teams and event organizers. This collaborative approach underscores HiCast’s commitment to supporting the growth and sustainability of youth sports nationwide.
"HiCast Sports Network is proud to partner with Sandhills Global Youth Complex to bring high-quality live and on-demand game coverage to families, coaches and scouts across the country," HiCast Sports Network Chief Operating Officer Stephanie Calabrese said. "Our platform allows fans to stay connected to the Moments That Matter, whether they are watching from the stands or from miles away."
