NextPlay answer
Share multiple highlight videos with coaches using one link
A single recruiting reel is not always the whole story. An Athlete Showcase gives the athlete one coach-ready page for selected highlights from different games, events or parts of a season without making the entire library public.
Short answer
Create an Athlete Showcase, choose up to 15 finished highlights, put them in the order you want and publish one stable link. A coach or scout can open that link without a NextPlay account and choose among only the films you selected.
Choose only the films you want to send
A Showcase is separate from folders in My Library. Filing a reel never publishes it, and removing a reel from a folder never changes the Showcase. The owner explicitly chooses every film that appears.
A Showcase holds up to 15 highlights. When it is full, remove or replace one before adding another; NextPlay never silently drops an existing film.
Arrange the coach's first view
Choose which film plays first, reorder the remaining highlights and edit the headline. New Showcases begin with the athlete's full name followed by “Highlights,” including suffixes such as Jr. or II, and the owner can change that headline.
Nothing autoplays when the page opens. The viewer chooses a film, and only one video player is active at a time.
Send one private-by-default link
Publish and copy the Showcase link yourself. Anyone with the link can watch without signing in, but Showcases are unlisted from search engines unless the owner deliberately enables discovery.
NextPlay counts opens and approximate viewers without claiming that a viewer is a verified coach or scout. Rotating the link makes the old address stop working immediately.
Common questions
How many highlights can one Athlete Showcase hold?
Up to 15. Remove or replace a highlight when you want to change a full Showcase.
Does a coach need a NextPlay account?
No. Anyone with the published Showcase link can open it and choose a film to watch.
Does putting a highlight in a folder publish it?
No. Folders organize the owner's library. Only highlights explicitly added to the Showcase appear on its link.
Can NextPlay tell me which coach watched?
No. NextPlay reports opens and approximate viewers, not a viewer's identity or whether that person is a coach or scout.
