Teamcast

Teamcast was designed primarily for player contacts as an enhancement to the game day experience for both those attending the game as well as those that are unable to make it to the field. At its core Teamcast is team chat centered around the game event. As with the regular Team Chat, users can share photos and short videos. Teamcast provides options to easily share score updates, play updates and clock updates.

Please note mobile notifications should be enabled for the Byga App ( in the “...” more menu →Settings → Device Settings). Also, note that mobile chat notifications by default are disabled for the coach both in the Team Chat as well as in Teamcast. A coach can enable chat notifications by clicking on the red bell.

Starting a Teamcast

Starting a Teamcast is possible about 30 minutes before the scheduled event start time. The Teamcast link will be found on the home screen or on the event details page.

If the Auto Start option is tapped, the first period will automatically start at the scheduled event start time. Any user can then tap on the Start Now button if the game starts early. If the game starts late, the timer can also be adjusted by clicking on the timer.

Sharing Updates on Teamcast

At any point, users can tap on either the scoreboard or the Teamcast menu on the bottom right to share a Score Update, a Play Update or to update the game timer or the game period. Users can also use any of the Team Chat functionality for text chat, photo or short video sharing.

Using Teamcast for Post Game Reports

For teams needing post game team reports, the information in the Teamcast can be used for score reporting and stats such as goals, assists, yellow, red cards and more. A link to a Teamcast archive will always be available from the Team Detail screen. A few hours after the end of the game, the Teamcast will be archived in a read-only mode which will continue to be accessible from the Event Detail screen.

A link to a Teamcast tutorial is available in the Help and FAQ (“...” more menu on the main footer → Help & FAQ → Teamcast Tips) and is also found at the top of each Teamcast.
