The game says it has started, but nothing is showing
If you are watching from another state, please first check that you have adjusted for your local time zone.
Live games will only appear approximately five minutes before the scheduled start time. Prior to this, you may see a holding screen with technical or encoding information displayed. This is normal and indicates the broadcast is preparing to go live.
Is there a delay in the live stream compared to the actual game ?
Yes, most live streams have a short delay (10–30 seconds) due to encoding and transmission.
Are all games live streamed ?
While the majority of games are streamed, not every game is guaranteed to be live. Games that are scheduled to be live streamed are listed in the ‘next up’ section. Check specific event information through Softball Australia for more details.
The stream is glitching, freezing, or going black
This can be device- or network-related, even if your connection seems strong.
We recommend:
- Refreshing the stream
- Closing other apps or browser tabs
- Trying a different browser (Chrome or Safari recommended)
- Switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data to test performance
Mobile devices may experience more issues than laptops or desktop computers.
It works on my computer but not on my phone (or vice versa)
Different devices handle live streaming differently.

- Restart your device

Refunds are assessed on a case-by-case basis. Before requesting a refund via support, please ensure:
- You are logged in correctly

- You have tried basic troubleshooting steps
How do I watch Softball Australia TV on my TV ?
You can watch on your TV by:

There is no standalone TV app, but casting works well on most modern TVs.
How do I cast this to my TV ?
