IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: Despite great interest and viewership over the last 2-plus years we have made the difficult decision to suspend our coverage of local sports. Despite a monthly engagement of approximately 40,000 people and over 7 million views, it has become clear that the website and coverage are not something folks want to purchase/subscribe to, leaving us chronically short one of our key revenue streams. We've explored media partnerships, a live-streaming model, even AI products over the last year. None of them currently make the cost of covering local sports sustainable. For as long as the website remains up we have made it completely free, including nearly 700 articles and 500 videos. The photo store remains open (see the link below). There are almost 10,000 game photos available for purchase. You can search the "galleries" by school, sport, or team. As always we value your feedback. If there is a product that we can produce in the future that the community feels it can get behind, and celebrates our athletes, please feel free to send in your ideas. In the meantime there is still quite a bit of great high school sports coverage across Southside, including River City Sports, Sixth Man Sports Network, District 2 Podcast, local television stations, radio stations, and newspapers. We love you all. We want to say thank to all of our fantastic sponsors and subscribers. You all have paved the way. God bless each of you.
