I can tell you from the some of the best coaches around the world that game analysis, breaking down film, is one of the most useful education tools and tends to be the most effective way all players from all ages can learn. Having the accessibility without hurting your pocket was something that clubs, including myself, are very excited about. Anthony Flores Meraki FC Head Coach

Attract new talent. We know clubs get competitive when it comes to how they win prospects. Adding Hudl to your club will help you maintain consistent coaching philosophies and a focus on player development across all your teams—and could be the deciding factor in an athlete’s choice
Focus on development. Player development is the core of club soccer—our tools reflect that. Coaches can use playlists to point out where teams and athletes are doing well or where improvement is needed. The more your players improve, the more attention your club will receive.
Let us do the stats. Hudl Assist—it’s like having the perfect assistant. Coaches can focus on coaching because our analysts will provide stats for both sides of the ball within 24 hours. Advanced reports are included, with stats linked to video as an added time-saver during review. Check out page 16 for more details.
Gain new sponsors. It can be vital for clubs to have sponsorships to help offset costs. Hudl will give you a consistent flow of video content to create opportunities for new paid sponsorships, or as added value for current key sponsors.
Impact every age. Athletes are visual learners—being told what happened won’t produce the same results as seeing what happened. With the implementation of Hudl club-wide, athletes from U8 to U18 can use video to grow and improve at each level.
Streamline your communication. With tryouts, practices and tournaments, club schedules can get hectic in a hurry. Simplify messaging with Hudl. Keep in touch with your teams, check schedules and track wins, all in one place. With every team on one account, club management is easy.

[Hudl] is really the only way to get a detailed look at what’s going on in any particular game. Just viewing it live, you’ll never catch everything. It takes some work, there’s no doubt about that, but if you’re a serious professional and you want to be the best possible coach to improve your team, this is what you need.

Improve communication. Coaches need to stay in constant contact with their teams. Hudl’s in-app messaging keeps everything in one place, so no team member will ever miss an update.

I find it’s really important that you utilize that footage to allow you to make accurate coaching points. For the players, for them to reflect accurately on what has happened, that really allows them to learn from mistakes and to take confidence from the positive things that they’ve done. Mikey Harris Portsmouth FC Head Coach
