Do you know which app? ANd how they plan to do it? I would like to do it for our team

Ditto, please share. Our TM seems like a deer in headlights and completely doesn't seem willing to figure this out so we want to try to make it as easy as possible for him.

You’re aware that the team manager is not getting paid; was probably talked into doing the job by the coach; and was probably focused on tournament paperwork, missing medical waivers, mandatory tournament Covid Zooms, and doing his actual job (not to mention his family) this week, right? I also had to talk 4 different families off the ledge about participating in a tournament during a pandemic, even though I don’t think we should be playing in the first place. Sorry if some of us didn’t also get around to learning how to stream the matches for you. Because this isn’t supposed to be all about you, right? It’s for your kid? And what were you doing all week to help?

Reading comprehension is ESSENTIAL, just essential. "we want to try to make it as easy as possible for him". Our team is actually a very nice group of families whose kids have played together now for a few years. Everyone gets along, we coordinate camps together, we always help each other out when someone can't drive their kid or even take them for the weekend during a tournament and we socialize together (precovid). Our TM LOVES to be the team manager and has done it every single year. He eventually did say it was too hard for him to figure out and asked for help, and a bunch of us pitched in money to buy the equipment and someone else did the filming. But we didn't want to step on any toes or break any rules.

Sorry your team is so stressful. Wish all teams were like ours, we have each other's back.

Funny, your description of him being “unwilling” to take the time to figure out how to serve you actually doesn’t make you sound all that friendly or kind, so maybe it’s less of a reading comprehension issue and more of an entitled parent issue.

No they didn’t.

Yup covid outbreak

We played a Coppermine team today

The behavior of that coach was atrocious. Serious personality disorder.

Coppermine is a pretty trash organization.

GFRSC with a meh lackluster performance in N Cup this weekend. Mostly played top Napoli teams down in lower levels and still struggled to score goals. Unfair to generalize but in general Club looks technically proficient but seems to lack intensity. Room to improve

OK - so have you figured it out, or are you just as much deer in the headlights?

Has anyone ever done this before? YouTube Live won't let you stream from mobile unless you have 1K followers. Facebook is Orwellian and nobody who is anybody uses it anymore, nor would I sign up for it just for this. I see that Periscope is still around ... any other options? Any advice?

If not, welcome to the herd, fellow deer!

So helpful and salty. Did it make you feel better, like a real man to be so rude?

Look, I asked because I want to help. No I don't know, but I am not the team manager so I am not the one allowed on the field. Several people on our team want the ability to stream. If the TM can't figure it out, he needs to be a big boy and say "hey guys, actually I do need help" or "no, I don't know how to do it, anyone have any suggestions?" But being radio silent isn't helpful, in this or in anything in life. I am doing research on it, part of my research brought me here, which is why I posted the question.

I don't GAF if it's Facebook live, zoom, or even a FaceTime conference call. I just want to be able to watch it on a stream. And I am not the one on the books as the TM. Got it?

LOL -- so your answer is "No, I'm deer in the headlights as well." Very big boy of you lol
