Tekkers Media FAQ Page

What makes Tekkers Media different from other editing services?

We aren't just video editors; we are soccer people. We understand the nuances of the game and what D1, D2, and D3 coaches are specifically looking for in different positions.ectively with coaching staffs.

Why shouldn't I just use the automated highlights from Veo or Hudl?

AI is great for capturing the ball, but it can’t see "off-ball" movement, tactical IQ, or leadership. Our human editors (former elite players) watch every second of your film to find the moments that actually impress scouts.

What is the typical turnaround time for a video?

Once we receive all the footage and player information, our standard turnaround time is [Insert your time, e.g., 7–14 business days]. We also offer expedited "Rush" options if you have a tournament coming up.

What if I want to update my video later in the season?

We offer "Season Updates" at a discounted rate for returning clients. This allows you to swap out older clips for your most recent highlights to keep your reel fresh.

    • How do you know which clips are my child?

      • Answer: When you submit your footage, you’ll provide the player's name, number, jersey color, and any specific timestamps you’d like us to focus on. Our team of former players and coaches then scouts the film to find the best moments.

  • Both! We can create a "Season Highlight" from multiple games or a "Game Spotlight" from a single performance. For the best recruiting results, a season-long highlight reel shows the most consistency.

  • Telestrations are visual cues (circles, arrows, spotlights) that we add to the video. They ensure a college coach immediately identifies your player and understands their role in the play, even in a crowded box.

  • Every Tekkers video starts with a professional Intro Slide. This includes the player's name, photo, jersey number, graduation year, GPA, and contact information, ensuring scouts have everything they need in the first couple of seconds

  • A strong college soccer recruiting video should open with a clear introduction — your name, graduation year, position, current club, jersey number, and any academic or athletic achievements, along with a headshot — so a coach can immediately identify who they're watching. From there, the video should lead with your best moments before breaking into position-specific segments that consistently demonstrate decision-making under pressure, technical ability, game awareness, and overall impact on the game. Because highlight videos are often the first step in whether a coach decides a player is worth recruiting further, the video needs to be clear, well-organized, and easy to evaluate within the first few moments — not just a long reel of clips strung together. At Tekkers Media, every video is manually reviewed by someone with high-level playing experience to make sure a player's best moments are clearly and effectively showcased, and every video is optimized for coach usability, with clean identification and easy access without unnecessary friction or downloads.

  • College coaches do watch highlight tapes, but they're not watching every single minute of them. Most coaches are evaluating dozens or even hundreds of players, so a well-structured video needs to let them quickly determine a player's level, playing style, and overall fit within the first few moments — not require them to sit through unrelated footage to find the good parts. This is why format matters just as much as talent: a video that's cluttered, poorly organized, or slow to get to meaningful moments risks losing a coach's attention before they've seen what a player can actually do. At Tekkers Media, we build every video with this reality in mind, structuring highlight reels so a coach can efficiently see decision-making, technical ability, and game impact right away, which is a big part of why we treat video structure as seriously as the footage itself.
