The Racine Raiders will continue to livestream all home and road games, including the playoffs and the Gridiron Developmental Football League (GDFL) national championship game, on HomeTeam Live in 2024.
“Last year was a year for both the Raiders and HomeTeam Live to understand the system and needs,” said Raiders lead broadcaster Don Wadewitz. “There were some hiccups on both ends and we are confident we have them worked out heading into 2024.”
The Raiders will charge to watch any home games while road games will once again be free. One upgrade that HomeTeam Live made is to make it much easier to view free content. Fans will no longer have to go through the process of logging in and entering payment information to watch a free road game. The Raiders will simply supply a direct link to that content.
Fans can choose to pay individually by game or buy a season package to have access to all home games. Games will only be able to be viewed live and won’t be archived for later viewing. Fans purchasing a single game license should wait until the Saturday of that game to purchase their license as single game licenses are only good for 24 hours. It’ll cost $7 to watch individual games or fans can purchase a regular season pass, with access of up to seven home games, for $30.
Fans will be able to access the team’s broadcasts by signing up for an account at https://app.hometeamlive.com/#/home/leagues/28, selecting the subscribe button on the page, and choosing the Racine Raiders plan. You’ll be taken to the option to purchase a single game license or the regular season package. The regular season package can be purchased at anytime while the single game license should only be purchased on the day of the game.
Commercial establishments that wish to broadcast Raiders games in their businesses should contact the Racine Raiders at marketing@racineraiders.org. Racine Raiders games are copyrighted and owned by the Racine Raiders and commercial use without permission is expressly prohibited.
As part of the agreement, HomeTeam Live will provide direct customer support for Racine Raiders fans and the Racine Raiders will have the opportunity to participate in revenue sharing on advertising across the HomeTeam Live platform.
The Racine Raiders begin their 71st season and second in the Gridiron Developmental Football League on Saturday, May 11, against the Midwest Renegades. The Raiders are the reigning national champions and look to defend their title.

Tried to sign up for 2024 season streaming subscription. When I tried to log in, my password wouldn’t work and then the site did not send password reset code when requested. Tried twice. Disappointed I missed the first game but hoping someone can help. Thanks.
