Where's the Soccer and Volleyball coverage?

We have had this question over the past couple of weeks. Why do we not see more NP Girls and Boys Soccer games on NPTV? Our main priority is to provide as much coverage as possible of all our sports and activities here at North Penn High School. One of the issues we have is the ability get our cameras in locations that allow us to cover events as professionally as possible. Many of the Boys and Girls soccer teams play many of their games at the Snyder Road field. Unfortunately at the Snyder Road location, we do not have any access to power or stands in which to place our cameras at a proper angle. We have tried generators in the past, but it did not work our very well. We kept popping breakers on our bus and could only run one camera with what a generator could provide for about 20 minutes of the game.

Volleyball, track, cross country, bowling, baseball and softball all have similar issues, where the venue makes it difficult to cover the event. Games that are held in the boy’s gym, pool, stadium and turf field are the locations that are optimal for our sports coverage. For those sports not in those locations, we try to provide features on our Mornings and News Programs.
Good news, senior night for Girls soccer will be Monday, October 18 at the turf field and NPTV will be there!!!
Keep the questions coming; we love to hear from you!
