Hudl- any officials utilizing it?

[HLin NC]

We've doing the DVD in a mailer thing for several years but are beginning to have diminishing returns. Many of our area coaches have been telling us to get on Hudl.

I've signed up for their 10 day free trial program but need to get a handle on how it works. We aren't exchanging video like schools would do. How do we initiate getting the video from schools- call, e-mail? I don't see how to initiate a request without uploading video for which a school would reciprocate with.

Any experiences out here?

It was used for most of our college games in the conference I mainly worked. Other schools used it hit and miss at that level. No HS used it at all.

Peace

You don't need to purchase Hudl in order to use Hudl. If you have the teams send you a recruiter copy you can log in with a free account and view the game. You don't have all the functionality of Hudl (i.e. creating playlists or telestrating) but it's still better than a DVD version because you can look at specific plays. You can also download the game to your computer and get a separate file for each play.

But if your crew or association has the means to get your own license I highly recommend it.

This is how my crew has used it. About 1/3 of our games were on it last season. I expect that proportion to continue to rise.

All of my HS games, except maybe one, were sent to my crew chief as a recruiting package.

Thanks- Hudl doesn't really make that info readily available, as I could understand.

I'm using the 10 day "free trial". We've tried to get our RSO to invest in it but haven't been successful.

I guess the drawback is still getting some Hyper-Busy-Self Absorbed-High Strung Phys Ed teacher to actually take the time to send me the info, which is kind of where we are right now the DVD's.

According to Drebelbis, he's trying to get it for every official in the state, paid for by the NCHSAA.

God bless him and the fine work he is doing. I think I'll hang onto my $200. Sorry Hudl
