Last year, NDBowlTV made its much anticipated debut in the region. Bowlers and fans of bowling tuned into the High Plains Bowling Network to witness several life changing moments on the lanes. This season, NDBowling.com is going to take NDBowlTV to the next level. The changes made this summer are bound to improve the viewing experience for our fans. So what can you expect from NDBowlTV this season?
In the first season of operation, the main complaints with NDBowlTV were the lack of multiple cameras and visual onscreen scoring. Both issues have been addressed through the purchase of a new live streaming interface. The new interface allows for multiple cameras along with picture in picture capabilities. This improvement will give viewers multiple angles, including an on screen scoring shot as well as a camera in the booth. In addition to multiple cameras, the new interface will also allow viewers to connect with us at NDBowlTV through the use of Twitter. We will now be able to post tweets from our viewers on screen. So head over to Twitter and follow us (@NDBowling) and maybe one of your tweets will make it on the live show!
The overall viewing experience will change this season simply through the addition of multiple cameras and social media interaction, but why stop there? NDBowlTV will also have the ability to post on screen graphics. On screen graphics will help viewers understand who is bowling who in matches as well as where the show is taking place. This feature may also make it easier for NDBowlTV to present qualifying/match play scores throughout the tournament. Aside from event specific graphics, NDBowlTV will now be able to post advertisements for future bowling events or companies who would like to be featured on our shows. If you would like to advertise on NDBowlTV, please contact Daren (Seney1987@gmail.com).
This season will also include incentives from Ebonite. Ebonite signed on with NDBowlTV to be the official bowling ball partner of the High Plains Bowling Network for the 2015-2016 season. NDBowling.com will be running contests to give away several Ebonite bowling balls this season. On top of that, Ebonite will give a free Ebonite Ball to any bowler who shoots a 300 game with an Ebonite ball at a tournament covered by NDBowlTV.
With all the additions to NDBowlTV, the desire to have tournaments live streamed will increase. With shows being all over the upper Midwest and tournaments being one or two days, it is difficult to simply put a set price to all shows. NDBowling.com will offer free quotes to all tournaments interested in having NDBowlTV cover their event. Time on air and location of event (distance from Minot – home of NDBowling.com) will be considered in determining price. Please contact Daren (Seney1987@gmail.com) for a free NDBowlTV quote. Dates are filling up fast for the 2015-2016 season!
Finally, NDBowlTV will be rolling out a new Sponsorship Incentive Program in the coming weeks. The idea of this program is to allow tournament directors to use NDBowlTV as a means of gaining sponsors for the event. For a very small fee, NDBowlTV will post advertisements of your tournaments sponsors while on air at your event. This program will gain more sponsors for tournaments as well as help support NDBowlTV. It is a win win program for everyone. Upon booking your tournament with NDBowlTV, we will provide you with all the details of this program.
I hope everyone is excited for a great season at NDBowling.com!
