HiCast Sports Network Boosts Coverage at Smithtown Parks Ahead of 2025 Little League New York State Softball Tournament

HiCast Sports Network, a leading video streaming platform for youth and amateur sports, is proud to announce an expansion of its Smithtown coverage footprint just ahead of the 2025 Little League New York State Softball Tournament.

In addition to Flynn Memorial Park, HiCast Sports Network will now provide live-streaming and game highlight access at five additional fields across four prominent parks in Smithtown: Gaynor Park, Browns Park, Whitman Hollow Park and Veterans Memorial Park (also known as Moriches Park). This expanded access allows families, friends and coaches to stay connected to the action from anywhere with on-demand viewing and real-time updates.

“HiCast Sports Network will provide live-stream coverage in Smithtown using our new plug-and-play camera solution powered by cellular connectivity,” said Stephanie Calabrese, chief operating officer and co-founder of HiCast Sports Network. “This innovation allows venues, leagues, tournament organizers and colleges to take advantage of our robust platform while offering a flexible video coverage solution at any location.”

The state tournament draws top teams from across New York competing for a shot at the Mid-Atlantic regional and, ultimately, the Little League Softball World Series. The 12U Division State Tournament runs from July 13 to 17 and will be followed by the 10U and 11U Divisions from July 20 to 24.

“Renovations were completed at Veterans Memorial Park Field 4 and the James E. Dowling Memorial Field 5 ahead of this year’s tournament,” Smithtown Recreation Superintendent Brandon Modrov said. “The 2025 event and HiCast Sports Network’s expansion build on that momentum with broader field access and expanded community engagement.”

COVID-19 Pauses Live Play, So We've Unarchived All of Your 2019 Games

2019ArchivePromo_FB.png

Spring tournaments across our network came to an unexpected close by March 15, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At present, most our ballparks have paused play indefinitely with a common hope to resume sooner than later. It’s a difficult time for all of us right now, but coming together as a country to help slow the spread of this virus, flatten the curve for our healthcare system, and to support one another as one team is what’s most important right now.

But we know you need some good news while you’re homebound, and a way to stay connected to the game you love, so we've unarchived ALL of your games from 2019, so you can replay the Moments That Matter™ on-demand! Take advantage of this time you have with your family to dive into the archives together and watch your favorite games from ballparks across our network. Be sure to use our mobile app to tag highlights as you watch... We've got a contest coming soon! 

We couldn't have made this happen without our ballpark partners: Baseball Heaven, Sports at the Beach, Diamond Nation, Baseball USA "The Yard" Powered by Marucci Elite Texas and Texas USSSA Baseball, The Shipyard Park, Tyger River Park, Ballparks of America, East Cobb Baseball Complex, Buckhead Baseball, and JockJive Sports. Thanks for standing by us as we all wait this out together as a team.
