As a prospective student-athlete, you can use the SportsRecruits platform to upload unlimited amounts of video for any college coach in the country to view throughout the recruiting process. College coaches rely heavily on video to evaluate the student-athletes who are reaching out to them.

The SportsRecruits platform makes uploading your video easy. There are three separate sections in the "Video" tab on your student-athlete profile. 

The ”My Videos” Section

• Hosts any video that you have (including Hudl video, YouTube video, Vimeo, Krossover, etc).

• If a video is listed here, it does not mean that it has to be displayed on your student-athlete profile.

• Visibility of your video on your student-athlete profile occurs only after the visibility toggle is on

• You can drag and drop the videos to change their order. We recommend that you put the most important/recent videos at the top.

• There are 3 actions you can perform on the recruiting video that you upload:

• Edit: we recommend that you edit the video title and description to include eye-catching words or phrases.

• Delete video: the video will be deleted from your video library.  

• If a purchased video is deleted from your library, it will still appear under the Purchased Tab.

• Download: You can download the video file to your computer.

• Note: Embedded videos cannot be downloaded.

The “Purchased” Section

• This is where you can access and download your purchased film.

• SportsRecruits works with Cross Street Sports and Jake Reed to distribute film to student-athletes after an event.  

• You will be led directly to this section of the video library when you receive an email with your video access link after an event.

• Click the “Download” button to download the video files to your computer. Furthermore, you can also add this footage to your profile by clicking “add to my videos."

• Your purchased video becomes visible to coaches once it is in the "My Videos" section. 

The “Available” Section

• This includes footage that Cross Street Sports has filmed of your team at an event.

• You can watch a three-minute preview of each game before purchasing.

• To purchase, click on “Buy Event Video.”
