I didn't even think it was within the rules to televise a high school regular season game live without permission of the OHSAA. Also, if the pictures of minors are going to be put on the internet, I thought you had to have permission from their parents. I question whether or not that this station should be showing these games without at least contacting the participating schools.

If that is the case. I would then assume that you could not film any game for any purpose. Also that would mean no cameras at all in the gym while a contest is taking place.

I was thinking about stopping out for a couple of these games. I havent gotten to see any games this year and would like to watch a couple Saturday. Hopefully the weather doesn't effect these games but my bet is it will.

I'm sure they would know the rules before doing this. The world of media is changing and this may be the new form of media coverage. I did speak to one of the guys doing this and they said according to OHSAA media guidlines that they are not breaking any rules. He said that they understand some of the concerns and are treading lightly to try and be as safe and as legal as possible. He said that the OHSAA has webcast rules in place. They said Tournaments are the only things they will most likely not be able to do because other companies have already got contracts with OHSAA for them or the media fees to cover a game may be too high for them. I asked about minors and such as well. When a kid signs up to play sports he is also signing a media rights waiver that allows media and news coverage. (aka radio, television, and webcast) They can't use a kid for advertisement though. Like making a commercial with a kid promoting something i guess.

I also asked about live coverage saturday. They said they have the ability but have not had the opportunity to do a live run and they will try to attempt a live feed Saturday if possible. They said they have already contacted the event organizers and the college and are expected.

I know that the kids love seeing themselves play on their site. I hear it all the time from students and players. I've also been told from the nextv guys that a college scout called them and thanked them for giving them the chance to see some players from this region that they would not of been able to see any other way. So if you got some college potential on your team then this is another way for them to get seen.

As for ticket sales, I wondered about that to and I go to the games and I got to say, the ticket sales at Peebles has not dropped off any at all from what I can see. I think they may have gone up if anything but that could be because they have a better team than before.

I am all for what they are trying to do. It's a new world of technology. Heck, just last night I seen ESPN broadcasting a High School game.. I say get the kids some exposure and let them enjoy it. I would of loved it back in the day when I played.

I think that the games are currently set for Tape Delay which means probably won't be online until Sunday or Monday I guess. But i don't know about the schools themselves.. They might have something of their own cooked up. I was just speaking for the nextvsports stuff.

The freshman phenom for Peebles as you say.. hehe, scored 30 points against west union tonight if I got my notes right. They gave him way too many shots.
