Coaches want to see recent, mostly unedited point play that shows how an athlete moves, competes, and holds technique under pressure — not a highlight reel of only winners. A short skills clip up front is fine; full points are what actually get evaluated.
- Film in landscape, steady, with enough of the court visible to read movement.
- Make it obvious which player you are (clothing note or a quick intro).
- Use recent footage — within the last few months.
- Show full points, including ones you lose, not just put-aways.
- Keep it to a few focused minutes; coaches will ask for more.
Honest, watchable footage beats a polished edit. Coaches are evaluating a player, and they can read more from a clean clip of real points than from a montage.
