Ballpark Radio to do both ToC and WT

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009


From ISC Executive Director Ken Hackmeister

ISC Reorganizes Streaming Operations
Tuesday, June 23, 2009
By unanimous vote of the ISC Executive Committee, our ISC Streaming operations for both ISC World Tournament and ISC II Tournament of Champions, are being reorganized effective with our 2009 tournaments. The significant changes include:

.. Central management of both areas of Streaming (World Tournament and ISC II).

.. Dave Blackburn becomes Executive Producer and becomes responsible for all technical aspects of Streaming

.. Jim Flanagan and Blair Setford become co-Program Directors and have responsibility for the announcers, color commentators, scheduling games for Streaming and co-responsibility with Dave Blackburn for generating sufficient revenue from all Streaming operations to make them financially self-sufficient.

.. Utilizing a pool of both play by play and color broadcasters who can and will rotate between World Tournament and ISC II games eliminating the consecutive games current broadcasters have had to do.

.. Jim Flanagan, Blair Setford, Kyle Smith and Lance Winn become the pool of play by play broadcasters. Color commentators will be selected by co-Program Directors Jim Flanagan and Blair Setford and will come from an experienced group of managers, coaches and players in both WT and II based on their availability during the tournaments,

It is felt these changes will provide our viewers and listeners with a more professional operation and at the same time, use the central management to generate the revenue necessary to make all Streaming self sustaining.
