The ability for a person to broadcast live on YouTube via a smartphone or tablet is limited to those with a Google-based email account with the 2-Step Verification enabled. Basketball Manitoba currently has a good-standing YouTube account with over 43,000 subscribers. It grants those who apply and meet our minimum standards the ability to access it. Not only will this allow you to broadcast from a smartphone or tablet with no additional hardware required, but all of the Basketball Manitoba YouTube subscribers will be notified of when your game goes live, significantly increasing your audience base that could tune into the broadcast. All broadcasts will be connected to all of Basketball Manitoba's social media pages (Facebook, Instagram & Twitter/X) with an additional reach of another 30,000+ people to automatically be made aware of your live stream.
As part of the LiveBasketball.ca Network, you must still provide your own smartphone or tablet, a tripod, and the current YouTube app installed (iOS or Android). For those programs that qualify to join the LiveBasketball.ca Network, we will send you a smartphone or tablet tripod clip to allow you to safely connect your device to a tripod to make the streaming process more professional and efficient for your camera operator and more enjoyable to your viewers. Basketball Manitoba will also provide several broadcasting tips and steps to ensure the highest quality products.
