NV Play: The go-to live streaming service for the grassroots game

Since making their debut a decade ago, NV Play have revolutionised the streaming of games for schools and clubs across the UK

Across the UK, NV Play are leading the way in scoring, live streaming and direct scoreboard integration via ECB’s Play-Cricket Scorer Pro software (PCS Pro). Widely used across the fi rst-class game, this trusted brand deliver the UK’s most advanced live streaming package complete with automated match graphics throughout the recreational game.

NV Play allows users to bring their own cameras or purchase from NV Play’s own curated range of camera kits - tailored for every budget and chosen specifi cally for cricket. Broadcast-grade live streaming and ball-by-ball video clips are automated simply by scoring the match with a connected camera. This enables the match to be viewed by parents and supporters in their living rooms, as well as enhancing team and player feedback via premium professional grade performance analysis tools.

The PCS Pro platform is widely used in the professional game by all 18 counties, as well as the England Men’s and Women’s International teams. The system also has a huge footprint in the recreational game where the natural key strokes of the everyday scorer powers the live streaming overlays, automatic in game match cards, ball clipping, online match centres and local scoreboards.

This professional seal of approval is not lost on Stowe School who have reaped the benefi ts of the platform. Director of cricket, James Knott, said: “NV Play have revolutionised the way we deliver cricket at Stowe school. Parents can view the games live when unable to attend in person and it has enabled us to easily pull player stats and match highlights together.”

Head of boys’ cricket at Trent College, Scott Boswell, is also a huge fan of NV Play. He said: “The fact our scorer just needs to score as normal to power the live stream overlays is a massive positive. The pupils enjoy seeing their videos and it has helped to give our winter programme some context as to who needs to do what to improve.”

NV Play has enabled video analysis of streamed games, a key aid for coaches in developing their young players.

Forest School head of cricket, Tomos Fowler, picked up the story: “Last season we used NV Play to stream all our 1st XI fi xtures plus a successful national cup run for our U15s.

“It has changed the way we coach and analyse post-fi xture. We have been able to collate data throughout the season and provide detailed analysis for our cricketers.”

NV Play’s vast experience in providing cost-e cient, high-end coverage for the professional and recreational game makes it the solution of choice for a number of governing bodies around the world. Just last season saw over 400 clubs and schools across the UK utilising NV Play’s best in class video features.
