NFHS Network production overview

One production partner for your NFHS Network game day

Schools do not need to choose between staying on the NFHS Network and improving the show. Primestar can bring the mobile unit, engineering, crew, graphics, replay, audio and transmission plan around the event.

For schools already on NFHS Network, we can support a step up in picture, sound, replay, graphics and show control. For schools looking for a path onto the network, we can discuss producing games for distribution through Primestar's NFHS Network affiliate channel.
