Daily Racquetball broadcast some of the open division matches on Facebook Live.
Notes for casual Facebook Live broadcasters:
1) Make sure “Auto Rotate” is turned on in your phone settings, particularly if you regularly turn it off for 99% of your other activities.
2) Before you tap on Go Live in Facebook, put your phone in your tripod horizontally.
If you do step 2, but forget step 1, you’ll get a message from Facebook telling you not to turn your phone while recording.
Only took me 4-5 games to remember that I needed to do step 1 today. Sorry about that.
To watch the videos that are rotated, use a phone or tablet, and turn your Auto Rotation off, or fix the setting in Portrait mode, and then start the video. You can then reorient the phone or tablet as needed to get the best view.

The Open finals took place at the same time as the A division matches, so I was on the court playing and did not get a chance to capture that match between Paul Kiil and Glen Martineau.
