Lincoln, NEB. – October 21, 2025. Hudl and the Elite Clubs National League (ECNL) have renewed and expanded their partnership ahead of the 2025–2026 season. This continued collaboration strengthens a shared vision to elevate the club soccer experience through an unmatched player pathway, helping to propel ECNL athletes to the next level. With a league exchange, capture and livestreaming via ECNL TV, and top-notch analysis solutions, ECNL players and their families have unmatched access and exposure in club soccer.
ECNL is synonymous with elite performance and national showcases. Hudl’s industry-leading tools give ECNL athletes, coaches and clubs the technology to highlight talent, analyze performance and tell compelling stories across every level of the game.
“We’re proud to continue our work with the ECNL to support their mission to transform youth sports and set new standards of excellence,” said Rachel Krasnow, Head of Strategic Partnerships at Hudl. “Through this partnership, Hudl provides tools the ECNL leverages to deliver meaningful exposure and pathways to the next level for athletes, as well as bring fans closer to the game through ECNL Match Central.

Hudl works alongside the ECNL to deliver professional-grade performance analysis that puts the athletes front and center for growth and recruiting.

These tools not only help athletes stand out but also support coaches in making informed tactical decisions and shaping organizational philosophies through objective, high-quality video and data.
“We’re thrilled to continue our relationship with Hudl to provide our clubs and players with the very best in the industry,” said ECNL President Christian Lavers. “We are excited to expand and grow the content shown on ECNL TV, to give clubs access to incredible amounts of match content through the League Exchange, and to allow more families and scouts to watch games and individual players. The combination of these tools and platforms will provide increased visibility, excitement and opportunities across the board.”
ECNL continues to prioritize ECNL TV as the home for live and on-demand broadcasts across the league. Hudl Focus cameras and streaming solutions make it easier than ever for families, fans and recruiters to follow the action.
