The importance of a proper volleyball recruiting video can’t be understated. For many coaches, the highlight video is your first impression. You want to make sure you make the proper first impression by using a professional volleyball recruiting video service. Chris Schieman Media has been helping student-athletes get recruiting, with the most professional services and fastest turnaround times in the industry!
But, the most important thing that helps separate my service, is I work in college athletics. I am currently a volleyball broadcaster, and I work directly with college volleyball coaches. That means when I give you advice on your volleyball recruiting video, it’s input that is coming directly from college coaches!
If you’re a high school athlete with ambitions to play in college, a college player in the portal, or looking to play professional volleyball, I can create the perfect volleyball recruiting video to help you move to the next level in your playing career!
Volleyball Recruiting Video Cost:
My professional volleyball recruiting video service starts at $150 per video. You send me game links, or upload your videos to the cloud, 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!
*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.
Highlight Video Cost Breakdown:
10 highlights: $150 per video (typically too short for recruiting)
15 highlights: $200 per video (minimum recommended by coaches for recruiting)
20 highlights: $250 per video
25 highlights: $300 per video (maximum recommended by coaches for recruiting)
35 highlights: $400 per video (not recommended for recruiting)

Volleyball Recruiting Video FAQs
What is included in the video?
- Each video starts and ends with a player card, highlighting important info, contact info, and key awards/stats.
- For volleyball, each player is typically marked with an arrow so coaches can easily spot the correct player, created using a jump cut to draw the attention directly to the athlete.
- Ordering of the highlights to help keep coaches engaged (free upon request)
- Your video uploaded to YouTube with proper SEO to attract coaches
- Fast turnaround, professional service
Will you watch the games and pick the plays for us?
Yes! If you’re struggling wit the time, or knowledge to pick the highlights yourself, I am happy to step in and take this off your plate! The typical cost starts at $450, in addition to the prices above to create the recruiting video itself. I will review full game footage and pick out the best 15 plays.
How long should my highlight video be?
For recruiting, 3-4 minutes (15-25 highlights). Any longer than that, you’re paying me for highlights the coach will not see!
What quality video can you work with?
At minimum, 720p, and up to 4k. Do not record clips on your phone using a 3rd party app. It will produce terrible quality video!
What Clips Should I Include?
For volleyball, we want to showcase all of your skills. This will depend on your position. However, only the best of the best plays should be shown. In most cases, coaches want to see the full rally for each highlight.
How do we send you the video?
Ideally, you send me the links to each game, with times where the plays are. Only attempt to cut video yourself if you know what you’re doing. Google Drive is the best option to send me clips.
You said don’t edit the video on a phone, but can we record on a phone?
Definitely! Today’s cell phone cameras produce great video quality. Most volleyball coaches film from behind, which is ideal for recruiting.
How fast do we get the completed video?
Most of my Google reviews mention how fast my turnaround time is. It depends on you, and other clients. All clients are first come, first served. But, typically within 48 hours.
I’m making my own video, and it doesn’t look right. Can you look at it?
If you’re creating your own volleyball recruiting video, and have questions, I will gladly take a look at what you’ve done. I charge a $50 non-refundable deposit. If you decide to use my services, that $50 will be applied to the cost of your video.
I still have questions!
