Creating a winning highlight or skills video is a critical step in the recruiting process. Coaches are busy and receive thousands of videos from potential student-athletes. The highlight or skills video is meant to spark the initial interest of the coach and motivate him or her to pursue you rather than cross you off the list.

It is not uncommon for a college coach to turn off a video after one or two plays if they are boring, display the wrong skill or they cannot tell which player they are supposed to be watching. Coaches want to clearly see the athlete they are evaluating performing the skills they feel are important.

We follow the guidelines of the NCSA in putting together highlight and skills videos.

If a college coach is impressed with your highlight or skills video, he or she will want to see more and will request a full game video – edited down to the portions of the game where you participate, e.g. only offense or defense or select plays – for a more thorough evaluation. Make the coach’s job easier by including a separate, full game video in the package you send.

A coach can learn a lot about you through your highlight or skills video, but will get to see you in all of your glory on the full game video. They will be able to see your demeanor around teammates, how hard you play throughout the game, and a lot of other aspects that are missing from a highlight tape. For recruits that coaches are serious about, these game tapes may be even more important than the highlight or skills video.

It is important to pick your best game of the season. If the coaches are interested, they will spend the time to watch the entire video to see what type of player you are from the start to the end of the game. Your performance, effort, and ability on the full game tape are important.

The final product of a highlight or skills tape is only as good as the initial footage. Good filming will make editing and evaluating much easier.

• Good viewpoint, angle and distance from the action
• Still and steady pictures
