Hey which camera do you have and do you just have ur own youtube channel to make it live. Also do you use a 128 sd card or what size?

Hi,
I use a Yi Camera and a 128 SD card. Any "Sports camera" on Amazon will work fine.
Here is my Youtube channel (below).
You can use Youtube, Periscope or Facebook to go live.

Awesome thank you so much. My daughter is on a 10u travel ball team and I really want to record her games and also be allowed to have my family watch it. Do you upload it to youtube or do you do live video?

I mainly upload to YouTube after the game.
Recently I have been setting up my phone (Samsung Note 9) and streaming on Facebook Live for some of the families that cant make it to the games.
I highly recommend recording games. You will be surprised at how quickly time flies by and you will wish you had those memories.

One last thing I would recommend is that unless you have very good internet, uploading full games to YouTube can prove to be a frustrating process. We usually keep a spare 1TB external USB hard drive that we copy all of the game video to. We have the parents pass the drive around and return before the next games. If we don't get the drive back, we don't share more video. It tends to police itself.

I can only give my opinion on what we have been using for 400+ games. Lynx Spyder is an outstanding product!! Highly recommended.
We use a cheap $30-$35 sport camera on Amazon. Just Search "Sports Camera". There is very little if any difference between these knock offs and the GO Pro.
I have a Hero first series but wouldn't leave it out in the rain and snow we play in :)

Here is a sample



Not bad for a $30 camera :)


Here is a game that has night view go to about 45:00s


Which teams am I cheering for ? :)
