HUDL Video Requests
Any official who requests a video share from a school on HUDL must be a member of a participating Officials Association such as AOS. The requests are handled through the crew chiefs.
If you are a crew chief, please click here to email us with the names of your crew and your 2026 Football Game Schedule. Please do not screen shot arbiter and send it to us. That means we have to manually enter each game and crew members. Please send us a list either typed out or exported into excel.
For your schedule, we just need the Game Date, Home School and Visiting School. For crew members, we need Name and Email Address.
If you are not a crew chief and your crew chief is a member of a participating Officials Organization, they should handle video requests through their organization. If your crew chief or anyone on your crew is not a member of such an organization, we would be happy to send them a membership application to AOS.
Please do not share usernames and passwords. HUDL does not take this procedure lightly and will revoke membership if their rules are not followed. If you have any questions, just email us.
You should also advise both head coaches that Suburban Officials will be requesting video of their game. You can use a game card to hand to both coaches. Click here for an example of the game card. You should include the following information on your notification to the coaches:
School: Suburban Officials
Team: Boys Varsity Football
{crew chief name} will be requesting a one-way video exchange. Please include ODK and Down/Distance as well as all camera angles.
We are looking forward to a great season and being able to use this very valuable tool to help us all get better at officiating.
