I am proud to offer affordable sports highlight video solutions for the future star athletes in your family! I can create a custom HD highlight reel for any sport to help with the recruiting process. I have worked as a broadcaster covering athletic events of all sizes since 2001, and I understand the importance of professional highlight videos that will catch the attention of a coach, team, or agent.
Whether you need a sports highlight reel for a high school student, college athlete, or looking to get the attention of pro scouts, you can count on me for reliable, professional services. I can also create special highlight packages for teams that can be used at end of the year celebration banquet.
Sports Highlight Video Cost
My services start at $130 per video (up to 15 clips). You upload your videos to Google Drive, Dropbox, or another secure cloud host of your choice, email me the time stamps of the highlights that you want included in the reel, and a picture and some info about the athlete, and I will create your custom video!
The full cost breakdown:
Cost for videos with time stamps:
Basic: $175 per video for up to 15 clips (minimum recommended by coaches)
Full: $275 per video (up to 25 clips) (maximum recommended by coaches)
Pro: $400 per video (up to 35 clips) *not recommended for recruiting
Cost for clips already cut*:
Basic: $130 per video for up to 15 clips (minimum recommended by coaches)
Full: $210 per video (up to 25 clips) (maximum recommended by most coaches)
Pro: $275 per video (up to 35 clips) *not recommended for recruiting
*Additional costs may be necessary for clips that need to be re-edited/re-formatted for a professional video. The most common cause for extra fees is clips that were done on a phone. Please try to avoid using free video editing apps on a phone to clip your highlights.
All Highlight Reels Include:
Each video starts with a custom card that includes a picture of the athlete, highlights and contact info. Videos include a highlight mark on the athlete so coaches know who to look for in the video. Good quality videos will be uploaded to YouTube with the proper SEO tools to help improve the visibility and make it easier for coaches to find. You will also get a free copy to download and a link to share as you see fit (via Google Drive).
Videos do not include music (music by request only). Why don’t I automatically include music? Because it is 100% unnecessary. I have been in coaches offices while they look at possible recruits. I can tell you that the coaches do not care if the video has music. In fact most of the coaches had the video on mute. I’ve done coaches interviews for radio shows at the same time they’re looking at highlight videos. By skipping an unnecessary step I can offer the lowest rates on highlight videos around!
My goal is to create a professional, sleek video that will keep the coach engaged. Typical turnaround 48 hours or less. I will let you know if I need more time (sometimes I travel to broadcast sports tournaments and will require a little more time to complete your video).

What Makes My Recruiting Video Services Unique?
I have over twenty years of experience working directly with college coaches!
There are a lot of people and companies that offer highlight video services. I pride myself on offering some of the lowest rates, and fastest turnaround times. But the biggest advantage in using my services is that I actually work in college athletics! I have worked directly with college coaches since I was in college myself, in 2001. When I give you a recommendation, or piece of advice, it’s coming directly from college coaches. While some other companies try to up-sell you, I understand that simple videos that are to the point are what coaches want. I have surveyed over 200 coaches from all different collegiate levels and sports so that I can guide you in the right direction for you, not the most profitable for me.
Highlight Video Guidelines & Recommendations
Video Quality Recommendations:
High quality video/clips are necessary for professional highlight videos. Full videos must be in HD for certain sports (soccer & lacrosse). Clips can’t be cut on a phone, you must use a desktop/laptop. Clips must be in 1280×720 (minimum) and 1920×1080 is strongly recommended. If you are concerned about video quality, please email me a clip, or link to a game, first. I will be happy to look at the video at no charge to see if it is high quality enough.
A note on using videos from YouTube:
I am able to download videos off YouTube, only with permission of the owner of the videos. Many videos people ask me to download to use for highlight reels are owned by companies, and it is illegal to use their work, without their permission. If a school or team is filming without hiring an outside company, you can disregard this message.
As a broadcaster myself, I take copyright protections seriously. It is against the law to use someone else’s work, however if you get permission from the company or person that shot the videos, I’m happy to work with them to get the material we need. Most companies are glad to lend the videos out to use for the purpose of recruiting. Others may ask for a fee. Without these permissions, you could find you paid for a highlight video that is suddenly blocked from being viewed by coaches.
