If you’ve heard of CatchMark, there’s a good chance it’s because of the work we do covering local high school athletics. Between live streams, highlight clips, interviews, and in-depth coverage, CatchMark SportsNet has become a go-to source for staying connected to your hometown teams. And we love being part of that.

But here’s the thing: sports coverage is just one slice of what we do.

It All Started with Technology

Before there was a camera on the sidelines or a mic in the press box, CatchMark Technologies started as an IT support company. Our goal was simple: solve problems and help people. And while we’ve grown a lot since then, that mission hasn’t changed.

At the heart of CatchMark is a full-service tech team that works with schools, municipalities, businesses, and agriculture operations across West Michigan. Whether it’s a small office or a wireless network spanning several miles or locations, we design, install, and support the technology that keeps you running.

Here’s what that looks like in real terms:

• Managed IT Services: We handle everything from day-to-day help desk support to complete infrastructure management. If your internet’s down, your printer’s being stubborn, or your system needs an upgrade, we’re your team.
• Cybersecurity: We take security seriously. We help our clients improve their cyber hygiene in each critical area: People, Processes, and Technology. As technologies shift, so does the threat landscape. Protecting an organization and its data from ransomware attacks, phishing, denial-of-service attacks, and insider threats is critical.
• Network Design & Support: Wired or wireless, complex or straightforward. We build networks that work—schools, manufacturing plants, city halls, and dairy farms. Wherever reliability matters, we’ve been there.
• Structured Cabling & Fiber: Clean, future-ready installs for voice, data, and AV systems. We’re the crew behind the cables that make your tech work like it should.
• Audio/Visual Solutions: From conference rooms and classrooms to gymnasiums and auditoriums. We install projectors, sound systems, video displays, and other audiovisual equipment. If you’ve seen the digital scoreboards at Montague High School, we were involved.
• Access Control & Security Cameras: We help protect buildings and properties with physical security technology. Door access systems, cameras, and monitoring setups that provide peace of mind.

We don’t just drop equipment and leave. We stay by your side, support it, troubleshoot it, and keep it running smoothly.

Building Connections Beyond the Tech

We also believe in being actively involved in our local community and workplace. That’s where CatchMark Community comes in. This is our space to highlight local events, nonprofits, community stories, and everyday individuals making a meaningful impact. It’s a reminder that behind every service ticket or broadcast is a real connection.

And that’s the through line: Connection.

We connect athletes to their communities through SportsNet. We connect people through Community. We connect organizations to the technology they need to move forward through our core technology services.

The Bottom Line

CatchMark might be known for sports—but we’re built on tech.

So whether you need help supporting your network, upgrading your AV setup, or a cyber assessment, we’re here. And we’ll still be there on Friday nights, cheering from behind the camera.
