What is the NFHS Network?

The NFHS Network is a livestreaming service that allows high school fans to watch games live or on demand. High schools primarily use it for sports events, but it can be used for other types of events like graduation or school plays, etc. It is subscription-based.

Are all games on NFHS Network? And are they good quality?

Some schools have their own livestream capability and choose not to use the NFHS Network. A weekly schedule of live events can be found on the NFHS website and includes varsity and some junior varsity competitions.

As for quality, the livestreams are set up to see the action on the field, but the depth of the broadcast depends on the school.

Some utilize their own broadcast team for higher production quality, while others do not. In either case, the stream allows you to see high school sports from the comfort of your home without hitting the road.
