Do anyone of you do something similar to this? I'm also wondering if this is something your handing to a game manager or AD when they greet you?
Yes, I usually make arrangements ahead of time with the AD to get a copy and then bring a self-addressed envelope with me to the game. I just hand it to the AD when I arrive.

Making plans ahead of time & self addressed stamped envelopes are a good way to go!
But (for me) when depending on the schools to get me the film, I'm receiving less than 30% of my games & it could be weeks to months later and in some cases not even the game that I worked.
That kind of defeats the purpose of video review as 24-48 hours after the game is recommended.


I've found the best way to get film is to bring your own camera, tripod & camera person.

I heard good things about Archos as well ARCHOS-Portable Digital Media Player Internet Device with GPS

Give some money to your kid, grandkid, etc. to shoot the game, focusing on your PCA, if possible. I've done that a few times, and learned a lot about what others see when I work.

Cameras are so small now, that my teenage son taped one to a broomstick. He even heckled a heckler for not knowing the rules (excessive swinging of elbows).
