How to Unlock 1080p Livestreaming in sidelineHD

A great game deserves a great stream.

For family and friends who can't make it to the field, a sharp, clear 1080p livestream makes it easier to follow every pitch, hit, and big play. That's why sidelineHD now gives teams a simple way to unlock HD streaming—by getting players claimed on their roster.

How Many Player Claims Do You Need?

Teams unlock 1080p livestreaming once they reach the required number of claimed players:

• Baseball & Softball: 9 claimed players
• Volleyball: 6 claimed players

Once your team reaches its player claim threshold, you'll have the option to stream your games in crisp 1080p HD.

Streaming or managing multiple teams?

Each team must reach its own player claim threshold before 1080p streaming is available for that team.

The Fastest Way to Unlock 1080p

The easiest way to reach your team's player claim threshold is to invite Player Managers (typically parents or guardians) to claim their athletes.

As the Team Manager, you can send an invitation directly from your roster in just a few steps.

How to Invite Player Managers

1. Create your team roster in the sidelineHD app.
2. Open the Roster tab.
3. Select Invite Player Managers.
4. Tap the Share button.
5. Either:
   
   • Copy the invitation link, or
   • Take a screenshot of the QR code.
6. Send the link or QR code to your team's parents and guardians.

Once they receive the invitation, parents can quickly claim their athlete and help your team move closer to unlocking 1080p streaming.

Give Your Viewers the Best Experience

When enough players have been claimed, your team will unlock the ability to stream in 1080p HD, delivering a sharper, more enjoyable viewing experience for everyone watching from home.

Whether it's grandparents across the country or family members who couldn't make the game, 1080p streaming helps them feel closer to the action.

Start inviting Player Managers today and unlock the best livestream quality sidelineHD has to offer.
