I understand that I am not allowed to produce “real time”, or continuous, live play-by-play or statistics of any NJSIAA event, including on any form of social media, without the express, written permission of the NJSIAA. For those events covered by the NJSIAA’s primary and secondary rights holders, I am not allowed to record and post any event to any type of platform, including on any form of social media, either live or at a later date without the express, written permission of the NJSIAA. I also understand that any video clips taken for news-related coverage will not exceed a total run time of 3 minutes in length.
I understand that anyone caught violating this policy, whether a live production or a tape-delayed post, will have their NJSIAA press/broadcast credentials immediately revoked, will be subject to a $500 fine and will be suspended for a minimum of two years.
I understand the NJSIAA has the right to deny any requests for broadcast rights. I also understand that such broadcast rights are non-transferable and a Photo ID may still be needed to enter the event.
I agree to pay all rights fees in full upon receipt of an invoice from the NJSIAA.
By signing this Request for Broadcast Rights, Requestor warrants and agrees to the following:
- Requestor will pay a rights fee of $200 for radio/internet rights and $300 for TV rights, made payable to the NJSIAA, within 30 days of the event date. There is no fee for school-based productions or local access cable channels.
- Requestor will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the NJSIAA, its agents and assigns, and any NJSIAA member school, from any claim whatsoever resulting from the activities of the Requestor related to the broadcast.
- Requestor will not advertise alcoholic beverages, tobacco products or political candidates during the broadcast coverage.
- Requestor will not interfere with the teams and/or players before, during or after the event.
Lastly, I understand that any broadcast rights approved (i.e. radio) for an event also being covered by the NJSIAA’s primary or secondary rights partner, that location priority will be given to staff of the primary or secondary rights partner when necessary due to capacity concerns. I agree to abide by the requests of the NJSIAA Staff or site management.
