I get an email notification from our 16U team in Florida that I can watch the next game live on Live Stream. A coach took an iphone attached an external battery to it and hung it on the fence just to the left of home plate. I can't see the corners but everything else looks great. I think I will start streaming the games next spring for those that can;'t make the games.

If you haven't seen it, check it out.

When you are ready to mount something securely to the fence, check us out. I'd be leery of mounting a $600 phone to the fence. You might consider using a GoPro camera (Ranging from $200 to $500). These cameras are rugged enough to handle the environment, and can take the shock of a direct foul ball hit. You can stream from the GoPro, through the camera, to LiveStream.

If I have a field that I want to broadcast LiveStream from what do I need and about how much does it all cost?

The field does not have WiFi so I quess one of the first things I would need to do is get WiFi to the field?

(Field does have electicity.)

No you can broadcast from a MI-FI hotspot or phone. If you want to archive the broadcast it costs 100 for the year. I read up and you can mount a go pro and hook to your phone up to the cloud. It is not 100% instant live meaning if we were talking on the phone and you were watching there would be some lag to the video but not much. Based on what I saw last night maybe 30 seconds or less?

You definitely want an external battery for your phone if doing more than one game.
