GameChanger Chooses Pixellot to Give Coaches and Families Access to Pro-Quality Live Streaming at Recreational Youth Baseball and Softball Fields Nationwide

GameChanger, the #1 rated youth sports app for scorekeeping, live streaming, statistics, and team management—and a DICK’S Sporting Goods company—has announced a new partnership with Pixellot to introduce QR code–enabled, fixed-camera live streaming at recreational youth baseball and softball fields across the United States.

The partnership follows a successful summer 2025 pilot across 32 recreational leagues, where both team followership and live stream viewership more than doubled on GameChanger compared to pre-installation levels.

Making Live Streaming Simple at the Community Level

The new offering expands GameChanger’s camera-agnostic ecosystem, which already supports streaming from mobile devices and third-party cameras such as GoPro and Mevo.

Pixellot’s SinglePlay camera adds a permanent, automated fixed-camera option designed specifically for recreational league environments. The system requires no technical setup and is activated by simply scanning a QR code at the field.

Once activated:

  • Games stream live directly into the GameChanger app
  • Families and fans can watch remotely in real time
  • Coaches and parents do not need to manage cameras or production

This approach makes high-quality live streaming accessible even at fields with limited resources.

From Live Streams to Automatic Highlights

When paired with GameChanger’s industry-standard scorekeeping platform—which underpins recreational baseball and softball nationwide—the Pixellot SinglePlay camera enables:

  • Automatic highlight clips
  • Postgame content delivered directly to families and coaches
  • A foundation for future personalized athlete- and team-level experiences within the GameChanger platform

Together, the integration transforms live streaming into a richer, ongoing engagement experience for athletes and their communities.

Strengthening Connection Through Visibility

“Being able to watch loved ones play live, even when you can’t be at the field, is no longer a luxury; it’s an expectation at every level of youth sports,” said Sameer Ahuja, President of GameChanger and Senior Vice President at DICK’S Sporting Goods.

“When young athletes know their family and friends are watching, it helps keep them engaged and playing. That belief drives our team to deliver solutions that make it possible to stream every game. Partnering with Pixellot is an exciting step forward in making high-quality live streaming more accessible for families and leagues everywhere.”

Early Results from the Pilot

Leagues participating in the pilot reported immediate and tangible engagement gains, particularly from extended family members who could not attend games in person.

“Those cameras were a total game changer for our league—pun intended,” said Rocky Bond, Technology Specialist for Coeburn Little League.

“Interest skyrocketed overnight. Other leagues started calling us, and my phone hasn’t stopped buzzing. We’ve heard from grandparents, aunts, uncles, and families all over the country thanking us because they could finally watch their kids play. At one point, someone said, ‘This is the coolest thing ever. I feel like I’m watching MLB, and it’s my kid.’ Having Pixellot SinglePlay with GameChanger has been phenomenal for our community.”

Pixellot’s Perspective

“Pixellot is proud to embark on an important new partnership with GameChanger, bringing a professional-grade—yet easy to implement and access—streaming platform to community baseball fields nationwide,” said Doron Gerstel, CEO of Pixellot.

“We are committed to AI technologies that not only empower our partners to capture more games, but also bring joy to players and families—just like a little league comeback or home run can.”

How It Works

  1. A Pixellot SinglePlay camera is installed as a fixed camera at the field
  2. A parent or coach scans the on-site QR code to activate the live stream
  3. Fans watch the game live in the GameChanger app
  4. Automatic highlights and postgame content are generated and shared
