In addition to day-to-day regular-season productions, School Broadcast Program participants cover tournament games taking place at their facilities as a condition of membership in the program. SBP schools also play a major role in the production of Quarterfinal games in the Boys and Girls Basketball Tournaments in March.

For the second straight week, a record 115 events are on this week’s MHSAA.tv schedule, with 74 at the varsity level and more to be added as the week progresses. A total of 51 events will be produced by schools using Pixellot, the NFHS Network’s automated coverage solution. Be sure to check “Upcoming Events” on the MHSAA.tv home page daily for last-minute additions.

Here’s this week’s MHSAA.tv schedule of video streams being produced by SBP members:

Tuesday – February 20

Wednesday – February 21

Thursday – February 22

Friday – February 23

Saturday – February 24

Monday – February 26

Tuesday – February 27

In its ninth year, the School Broadcast Program gives members an opportunity to showcase excellence in their schools by creating video programming of athletic and non-athletic events, with students gaining skills in announcing, camera operation, directing/producing and graphics. Pixellot is used by schools wishing to live stream games, but lacking the ability to staff the events. The program also gives schools the opportunity to raise money through advertising and viewing subscriptions. 

A complete list of participating schools can be found on the School Broadcast Program page of the MHSAA website.

Highlights of games produced in the past week by MHSAA School Broadcast Program members feature last weekend’s Upper Peninsula Swimming & Diving Finals.

Highlights can be found each week on the MHSAA.tv website, the home page of the MHSAA Website, and the MHSAASports Channel on YouTube.

With the winter sports season fully underway, StateChamps! High School Sports Show returns with new weekly editions debuting each Sunday at 9 a.m. on Fox Sports Detroit – featuring fresh editions of the MHSAA Minute.

The MHSAA Minute takes a look each week at different things happening in the life of the Association, from promoting educational programs to rules changes in high school sports. This week’s Minute takes a look at the School Broadcast Program – and as part of its salute to Black History Month, MHSAA Assistant Director Nate Hampton will be featured. Archived editions of MHSAA Minute can be found on the StateChamps! YouTube Channel.

Pixellots top 500 in Michigan

September 22, 2020

By John Johnson
MHSAA Director of Broadcast Properties

The number of Pixellot units installed or ordered for MHSAA member schools topped the 500 mark last week as the NFHS Network program to provide units to schools across the country for the cost of installation has more than doubled the number of Pixellots in the Great Lakes State over the past few months.

Pixellot is the NFHS Network’s automated production solution. Installed on the facing of a stadium press box or a gymnasium wall, Pixellot follows the action, complete with a scoreboard connection to show the teams, game score, time remaining, quarter or period – and in sports like football, down and distance.  Schools can see revenue from subscriptions and from displaying a sponsor logo on the screen.  Schools also can add announcer teams to Pixellot events to enhance the game for viewers.

Nearly 700 events in multiple sports at multiple levels of play fill the coming week’s schedule for the NFHS Network and MHSAA.tv.

In the coming week, nearly 350 varsity events – about half of them in volleyball - will be available. Monthly subscriptions are $10.99. Click for lists of upcoming games and on-demand games

Fans also can type their school name into the search field on the MHSAA.tv page to search for events. A complete list of schools participating in the School Broadcast Program can be found at the end of this release.
