Introducing: A Sports Team Messaging App Built for Families

Making family members' lives easier.

With new family member accounts, your athlete’s coaches can now send you messages on Hudl.

Behind every hard-working club athlete is a team of dedicated supporters. Not just the team that’s on the field with them—but the ones on the sidelines. Parents and guardians are the MVPs to their MVP. You’re the chauffeurs, the cheerleaders, and the ones juggling schedules to ensure your athletes can chase their dreams. You invest a lot of time and effort in your athlete’s athletics—let’s make your lives a little easier. 

Parents like you say team and coach communication is the number one priority when it comes to team management features. Meet the newest feature on your athlete’s Hudl team: family member accounts. 

All team communication in one convenient place.

There’s an enormous amount of information you need to know from your athlete’s coaches. Everything from when the next game is, where it is, what jerseys to wear, how early they need to arrive—and that’s all on top of an already busy schedule. Missing one update is enough to throw off your whole day.

Now all that important, time-sensitive communication can happen on Hudl (the same video analysis platform your athlete’s team already uses).

Messaging on Hudl is just like text messaging on your phone.

Once you sign up for a family member account, your club’s director and coaches can communicate directly with you in group and individual messages. You don’t need to keep track of separate group text messages or try to remember everyone’s phone number. The organization can share what they need to say and you know exactly where to find the information.

Designed specifically with you in mind, a family member account will simplify communication, helping you stay better organized and connected. You’ll be free to focus on what matters most—supporting your athlete every step of the way.

Signing up for Hudl’s team communication app is as easy as 1-2-3.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Your athlete’s coach or club director simply shares the team code with you.
  2. Once you know the team code, you’ll visit hudl.com/jointeam and sign up in just a few steps.
  3. Your athlete’s coach approves your request.
Only takes a few steps to get signed up

Now that you can have a Hudl account, you can log in from a computer or your mobile device, which means you can catch last minute messages on the go. 

And that’s not all that Hudl does for family members. The Hudl Fan app is the all-in-one destination for fans, ensuring they never miss a moment. Everything you want to see, including your athlete’s livestreams, is right at your fingertips. It’s all only a tap away.

We’re not done yet. Our team is continuing to improve family members’ experience on Hudl, so stay tuned—more updates will be coming soon.

It’s time we made it easier for athletes’ number one fans to get all the details they need. Contact your athlete’s coach today to get started.
