Want to watch Northern Essex Community College basketball games in the comfort of your own home?  Thanks to our partners at HC Media, you can now do that.

For the first time this season, HC Media will show all home games on Facebook Live.  You can enjoy the action in real time and share comments with other viewers.

Here’s a full schedule of upcoming games with home games in bold-faced type.

To tune in, just follow HC Media on Facebook.  As a follower, you’ll receive a notification when the live stream starts.

Special thanks to Chris Bowden, HC Media videographer, who will film the games, and to Darlene Beal, executive director of HC Media and a member of the NECC Alumni Association Advisory Board, who followed through on a suggestion by Dan Blair, NECC’s athletic director, to broadcast the games.

“NECC has a great basketball team and we want to get the word out to the community,” said Beal.

This is a pilot project, and, if successful, HC Media may expand to other teams, providing there are resources, said Beal.
