Live Streaming, Game Recording, and Automated Highlights Have Arrived in SportNinja!

We’re excited to announce a major new addition to the SportNinja platform: live streaming and game recording, now available directly within the SportNinja mobile app.

This new capability makes it easier than ever for teams to capture the action, share games with their community, and unlock automated highlights - all within the same platform used to manage schedules, scoring, stats, and communications.

Whether you are a team manager, parent, player, or fan, SportNinja now brings you even closer to the game. Full Details on How to LiveStream

A Simpler Way to Stream Games

With this release, each team can assign one videographer per game. Team Managers control who that person is, and the assigned videographer does not need to be listed on the team roster. That means parents, friends, staff, or third-party videographers can all be assigned if needed.

Team Managers are also automatically eligible to act as the videographer themselves.

Once assigned, the videographer can start streaming or recording directly from the Game Details screen inside the app. The process is intentionally simple, making it easy to get started without specialized equipment or a complicated setup.

Flexible Viewing Options for Teams and Fans

When a game is being streamed live, anyone with access can watch it in real time. After the game, recorded video can also be viewed on demand through playback.

SportNinja also sends instant push notifications to team members and followers when a game goes live, helping drive viewership and engagement automatically.

You do not need to be rostered on a team to watch. Users can simply search for a team, follow it, and then receive updates and access that team’s schedule and game content.

Built-In Automated Highlights

One of the most exciting parts of this launch is automated highlight generation.

When a game is both streamed live and scored live, SportNinja can automatically generate scoring highlights from the game. There is no extra work required from the team. As long as the scorekeeper is recording goals in real time, those key moments can be clipped automatically. Video Streaming - Communication…

This is another example of what makes SportNinja different: video, scoring, stats, and the participant experience all working together in one connected system.

Important Notes

A few important details to keep in mind as teams begin using this feature:

• The videographer and scorekeeper must currently be two different people for the same game.

• Teams can control whether their video stream is viewable by the opposing team.

• This setting is enabled by default.

• When both teams allow sharing, viewers can switch between each team’s stream. Video Streaming - Communication…

In addition to live streaming, games can also be recorded using an external device and uploaded afterward. At this time, uploaded videos do not support live streaming or automated highlights, but expanded support is planned.

What’s Coming Next

This launch is just the beginning.

We’re also working on expanded video capabilities, including support for additional devices and

feeds through RTMP, along with integrations for platforms and hardware providers such as Pixellot. We are also planning future personal subscriptions that can bring together game video, highlights, biometric performance data, insights, and regional leaderboards under one simple monthly offering.

SportNinja is also video-feed agnostic, which means if your organization already uses built-in cameras or another streaming provider, we are interested in working with your vendor to integrate that video experience into SportNinja.

Bringing Communities Closer to the Game

This new feature is about more than just video. It is about making game day more connected, more engaging, and more accessible for everyone involved.

From live viewing and notifications to automated highlights and future integrations, SportNinja continues to deliver a more complete sports experience for leagues, teams, players, and fans.
