Using the Hudl Website

The Hudl Exchange feature cannot be used to exchange with teams that are not in Hudl.

Our recommendation: continue exchanging with the non-Hudl teams the way you do now - DVD, external hard drive, some other exchange service - you will still come out way ahead because Hudl can load, cut, and distribute the video much faster than whatever they have.

The work-around: You can use Hudl’s recruiting features to send video to a non-Hudl team. This will allow you to send video to a coach as though they were a recruiter. We don’t recommend or officially support this work-around for a couple reasons:

1. The opposing team is going to get your video immediately, but you will have to wait to get video from them, as they don’t have a Hudl account.
2. When you share the video to them as a recruiter, they will be able to see basic data (down, distance, ODK, run/pass, yard line, gain/loss) on each clip. You can’t turn that ability off when using the recruiting tools, only during a legitimate exchange with another Hudl team.

Absolutely. Hudl gives you the ability to limit how your video is distributed. You can keep the video to yourself, share video only with other coaches on your team, your entire team, or just certain players with a few simple clicks.

If your team has not published any video, your first step will be to publish video from the Hudl Video Editor.

If your team has already published video, you will need to have the video shared to you. To have video shared to you, ask the coach who uploaded the video to share it to you.
