Expanding Video Coverage for Baseball and Softball to the Rocky Mountain Region

HiCast Sports Network, a game-changing, subscription-based social broadcast company which allows youth athletes, their coaches, families and fans to view sporting events live or on-demand at top venues across the nation anywhere, anytime, on any device, is proud to announce El Pomar Youth Sports Park in Colorado as a new venue partner. It is the first baseball/softball venue to join the HiCast Sports Network in Colorado.

HiCast Sports Network began coverage on all nine baseball/softball fields at El Pomar Youth Sports Park this month. Play on these fields (about 70% baseball and 30% softball) spans practices and games for local youth and adult amateur leagues from February through October, as well as statewide, regional and national tournaments organized by Triple Crown, Colorado Springs Baseball, Colorado Altitude Softball, Indian Peaks Girls Softball Association, National Championship Sports, and others attracting youth teams to Colorado Springs from across the country. Tournament play typically occurs during the spring and summer season and represents approximately 15% of total youth athlete play at the venue.

Colorado Springs Youth Sports and El Pomar Youth Sports Park Executive Director Steve Czarnecki shares, “With technological advances, remote viewing has become more popular in recent years and demand has increased significantly during the pandemic. Now, parents, grandparents, other relatives, and friends can watch their family members play baseball and softball at El Pomar Youth Sports Park from across town or across the world. And, we love that players can now watch themselves on-demand, and the app makes it easy for users to save their favorite game highlights to share with friends and family, as well as college recruiters. We’re proud to be able to offer this value-added service to league and tournament operators, players, and their families.”

The El Pomar Youth Sports Park, opened in 2000, spans 57 acres and is owned and operated by non-profit organization Colorado Springs Youth Sports in partnership with the City of Colorado Springs. El Pomar Sports Park welcomes more than 100,000 youth athletes and 300,000 patrons to the venue each year.

HiCast Sports Network users from around the world have watched more than four million game minutes featuring more than 300,000 athletes playing on more than 145 fields and courts at premier baseball/softball and volleyball venues in Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas.
