NO COST TO TOWN

LiveBarn amateur sports streaming coming to Blackfalds arenas

May 29, 2024 | 3:09 PM

Council for the Town of Blackfalds has unanimously opted to install a LiveBarn broadcasting system in Arena 1 and the Eagle Builders Centre for a term of six years.

The sports broadcasting system allows subscribed parents and extended family to watch live or on-demand youth and amateur sports.

Blackfalds will be receiving a unique code from LiveBarn that residents can use to sign up; the Town will receive 30 per cent of the revenue from these new memberships.

The installation, operation, and maintenance of the system comes at no cost to the Town and is the full responsibility of LiveBarn.

Although the system does livestream 24/7, the Town can and is expected to opt to have it blacked out if a game is not in session. They also reserve the right to restrict the broadcast from a pre-selected audience if privacy concerns arise.

Signage warning arena attendees of the system will be posted at the facilities, and the stream will be turned off for Blackfalds Bulldogs games.
