Class of 2026 recruiting FAQ
When should a Class of 2026 athlete make a recruiting reel?
As soon as you have game footage worth showing. College coaches start scouting freshmen and sophomores; by junior year, most programs have shortlists. A NextPlay reel takes minutes to build, so there's no reason to wait — update it every season.
Is NextPlay free for Class of 2026 athletes?
Yes — the Free plan covers 5 short clips a month, up to 10 minutes each, enough to try NextPlay. Full game film, Game Tape, and unlimited uploads start at $9.99/month. No watermark on any plan.
What format should a Class of 2026 recruiting reel be?
Most college coaches want a 60-90 second 16:9 (landscape) reel that leads with your hottest 2-3 plays. NextPlay's Recruiting Highlight is exactly that, muted and ordered for impact — and a vertical 9:16 Highlight for social media comes from the same upload. When you share either one, pick a 15, 60, or 90-second length right from the share sheet.
How many sports does NextPlay support for Class of 2026 recruits?
30+ sports including football, basketball, soccer, baseball, softball, volleyball, lacrosse, wrestling, swimming, track and field, tennis, ice hockey, and more. AI play detection is position-aware across 40+ positions.
