In addition to streaming pre-season tournaments, ClashTV's basketball programming will expand to include comprehensive livestream home game coverage of Tri-State high schools including: Eagle Academy BX, Thomas Jefferson High School, Atmosphere Academy, Canarsie High School, Capital Prep Harbor (CT), and John F. Kennedy High School. The coverage will include a weekly schedule complete with all home game livestreams and full- game VOD, recaps, and other short-form content. In addition, ClashTV livestreams interactive moderated chat, voting in polls and quizzes, as well as other community engagement features not offered on other high school sports streaming platforms.

The fall one-off tournament programming kicked off on September 30th, with "Respect For All, Fear None" live from the Bronx, followed by "Test the Waters," which streamed on October 7th, Jersey Beasts' "This is Our Town," The Mac's "Shoot Hoops, not Guns," Aces Hearts, and Hustle, and this past weekend's "Leaders of The New School."

ClashTV's High School programming will start the season with free streams and will later add PPV events and season-long subscriptions, where parents, alumni, and fans can watch every game from their respective school, live and on-demand.

High School basketball live streaming is an organic content expansion for ClashTV, which recently wrapped up a successful 2023 Summer Streetball streaming season, scoring a 350% increase in platform usage and an engagement rate on platform that exceeded 40%.

"After testing the water with several months of successfully livestreaming one-off high school basketball tournaments, we're excited to expand our coverage to include this pilot program of six top-tier Tri-State schools. In addition to our unique 'courtside' production style and interactive moderated community engagement, we look forward to launching our first subscription product where students, parents, alumni, and fans can dive deep with their favorite teams," noted ClashTV CEO Jonathan Anastas.

“ClashTV is honored to give to our school partners and every student the power of our entire basketball ecosystem (consisting of high school and pro-am basketball, families, fans, pro sports, and brands) and an opportunity to thrive on our relatable interactive platform that promotes social and emotional development and provides a space to build school spirit,” added the Founder and Chairman of ClashTV, Ivan Isakov.
