Hudl Tickets helps schools win by offering the ability to create a seamless game-day experience with digital ticketing, livestreaming and an all-in-one solution for programs of all sizes.
The Heart of High School USA
In Winnsboro, Texas, Friday nights are the heart of the community. With over 300 students participating in game day activities, including football players, cheerleaders, and the marching band, the entire town gathers to celebrate.
Managing such a central event comes with challenges, from coordinating ticketing to livestreaming, ensuring everything runs smoothly for fans and staff alike. That’s where Hudl Tickets stepped in to transform game day operations at Winnsboro High School.
A Gamechanger for Coaches and Fans
For Girls Athletic Director Robert Cochran, Hudl Tickets has become a critical tool for managing the school’s athletic events. “Hudl Tickets changes my day-to-day,” he explains. “Normally, I would be dealing with how many comp tickets we’re gonna have, how many reserve tickets we’re gonna have. I haven’t had to deal with that in six ball games.”
This shift frees up valuable time for Boys Athletic Director and Head Football Coach Josh Finney to focus on the game. “That probably gives me an extra three to five hours a week that I get to work on football,” he says. “I get to work on scoring touchdowns. I get to work on stopping people from scoring touchdowns.”
The simplified ticketing process has also made a big difference at the gate. “The process is easier, it makes it a lot smoother, and people seem to be a lot nicer at the gate,” notes Principal’s Secretary Jaime Fleming.
A One-Stop Shop for Winnsboro
Hudl Tickets consolidates ticketing, livestreaming and scheduling into a single platform, simplifying operations for staff and enhancing the experience for fans. Fans appreciate the convenience, as highlighted by Accounting Clerk Amber Kaltenhauser: “They want to be able to go to one thing, get in, get their tickets, see the livestream, whatever they want to do. And it’s just a one-stop shop.”
Josh Finney emphasizes the value of Hudl’s integration: “I don’t know why somebody would pay another ticketing (company) if they’re already paying for all the film breakdown data, whatever, silver or gold package, if they can get Hudl Ticketing with that and get a one-stop shop right there.”
This integration has significantly reduced the workload for Winnsboro’s staff while improving the overall fan experience. Fans no longer need to juggle multiple platforms to attend games or watch livestreams, creating a seamless and enjoyable game day for everyone.
