A New Era for High School Sports Fans: Introducing the Fan Engagement Suite

May 31, 2023

The world of athletics is shifting. Athletes are balancing more priorities than ever, like NIL opportunities, social media, and club or AAU teams with their busy extracurricular schedules.

It’s the same story for you. Athletic leaders have a ton to manage at every moment—including building excitement around their organizations.

The way fans follow their favorite teams has also shifted. With more access to information but less time than ever, people stay connected to their favorite things in different ways—including sports. So if they can’t be at the game, fans expect to know how it went.

Knowing the final score is great. But it’s not enough. Picture how fans keep up with their favorite professional teams. They don’t only want to see who won and lost—they want to watch highlights, see their favorite player's stats and catch the end of the game from wherever they are. It’s time to bring this enhanced level of connection to every fan, regardless of the level of play.

Introducing the Fan Engagement Suite

We built the Fan Engagement Suite to give fans everything they need to connect with their favorite athletes and teams on gameday and beyond. And we made it simple for you to operate. Here’s how it’ll transform your organization.

The simplicity of a single platform.

The Fan Engagement Suite gives fans access to rosters, highlights, livestreams, scores and schedules—all at their fingertips. Best of all, it’s easy to manage. Simply input your rosters and schedules (something your coaches might already do!) to fuel the entire experience.

Easy access for fans.

Fans can use these tools on the Web by visiting fan.hudl.com, or on their mobile devices by downloading the Hudl Fan app from their device's app store. It’s completely free to download and access.

The power of Hudl video and data, now available to everyone.

The key to it all is Hudl’s video and data capabilities. Your coaches and athletes already use Hudl to track stats, analyze film and create highlights. These new tools work seamlessly with what you already use—like Hudl Focus for your game footage and Assist for your stats. Now, we’re giving fans the ability to tap into the video and scores for their favorite teams.

The ability to enhance gameday and enrich your program.

It doesn’t stop there. Fans will also be able to purchase tickets and livestream passes through the platform. Everything lives within a single solution, yet there are multiple pathways to generate revenue for each game. It’s fundraising made easy—for you to handle and for your fans to contribute.

Bring Passion to Your Program

The ability to stay connected at all times builds passion. And with how tightly intertwined communities and their local teams often are, sports are uniquely suited to capture this passion. Fans want to rally around your teams and feel more closely connected to you and the place they call home. To be a part of something, even if they don’t have a son or daughter on the team.

Now they can, with everything fans need to follow your organization in one easy-to-manage place. It’s your pathway to building a deeper, more passionate fanbase. And it’s available now. Find your favorite school or club at fan.hudl.com.
