Hudl and Atavus Football announce preferred partnership to elevate tackling performance.

Hudl and Atavus Football announce preferred partnership to elevate tackling performance. LINCOLN, Neb., 4 November 2026 - Hudl, the global leader in sports performance analysis and scouting, today announced a multi-year preferred partnership with Atavus Football, a tackling education and consulting company. Atavus will be an official Hudl Preferred Partner, and Hudl will be Atavus's preferred video analysis and auto capture solution. The partnership brings the Hudl Focus Point LR, Hudl's new end-zone camera, into the Atavus Tackle Performance Assessment (TPA), adding another angle for evaluating tackling. "We're excited to partner with Hudl to give coaches a real edge where it matters most: on the field and on the film," said Kerry Carter, CEO of Atavus. "Hudl's new end-zone camera provides the angle our team needs to evaluate tackling at a deeper level, so we can turn around Tackle Performance Assessments faster and with more usable detail for coaches and players. We're making it easier for programs to upgrade both their video and their tackling insights at the same time. This is the start of a long-term collaboration with Hudl to help coaches build better, safer, and more competitive football programs." Atavus uses a patented, data-driven process designed to support player safety and team performance. Its Tackle Performance Assessments work alongside Hudl film and data, and Hudl's video analysis and auto capture technology, including the Focus Point LR, provides the footage that Atavus evaluates. "Atavus brings deep expertise in tackling that complements the film and data coaches already use in Hudl," said Rachel Krasnow, head of strategic partnerships at Hudl. "We're excited to renew our partnership to reach our mutual goal of supporting and elevating safer, competitive football programs across the country. With their foundations in tackling paired with our new Focus Point LR end-zone camera, we can provide programs a clearer view of tackling and a practical way to coach it." About Atavus Football.

Iraq Football Association signs Hudl Wyscout deal to boost global scouting.

Iraq Football Association signs Hudl Wyscout deal to boost global scouting. Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) - The Iraq Football Association (IFA) has secured an exclusive multi-year arrangement with Hudl to introduce Iraqi football on the Wyscout scouting platform for the first time, providing clubs and scouts across the globe more access to Iraqi players. Arabs & Middle Easterners The agreement will apply to the Iraq Stars League, Iraqi Premier Division League, Iraq FA Cup, and Super Cup, as well as the Iraqi men's, women's, and junior national teams. The agreement will make video and statistics from Iraqi tournaments accessible on Hudl Wyscout, a popular professional football platform for scouting, player recruiting, match analysis, and transfer market research. The partnership might considerably improve Iraqi players' international profile by enabling scouts and recruiting departments outside the country to analyze potential using the same platform used to evaluate players in football markets throughout the globe. Iraqi clubs and coaches would now have access to analytic tools for evaluating matches and player performance, giving new resources for coaching and player development. The deal is another step in the IFA's attempts to modernize Iraqi football infrastructure and gain international exposure for local events. For young Iraqi players in particular, participation on Wyscout may make it simpler for abroad teams and scouts to find and monitor rising potential without depending entirely on international competitions or national-team performances. The partnership also connects Iraq's local divisions to a larger digital scouting ecosystem, at a time when data and video analysis are becoming more essential in football recruiting. For Iraqi football, the agreement opens up new avenues for homegrown talent to be noticed abroad, while also providing teams with access to professional scouting and analytical technologies used around the world game.
