HUDL is at Arkansas Volleyball Academy!

**NEW in 2025** We are proud to announce each of our 12-18s Regional-National Level teams will be given the opportunity to utilize Hudl during their 2025-2026 season! 

Since launching in 2006, Hudl has quietly grown into a must-have tool for sports teams of any level. The Nebraska-based company has built a platform where athletes and coaches can quickly upload and review videos of gameplay, creating a network with more than 130,000 teams and 3.5 million unique users. Hudl's tools can be used for training purposes, with coaches creating diagrams or adding annotations to videos to share with their players, as well as for promotional purposes--players can easily create highlight reels to share with their fans on their Hudl profile page or via social media outlets. The platform has also become useful for recruitment, granting players easy access to content that they can share with scouts and producing videos that can go viral and attract attention to otherwise unknown hopefuls. The small startup has experienced hyper-growth in the last few years and is now licensing its content to larger sports networks like ESPN, creating an additional source of revenue.



MIZUNO PARTNERSHIP

We’re excited to announce Arkansas Volleyball Academy has been offered a partnership with MIZUNO USA, Inc! Mizuno provides championship level apparel, as seen on three-time Olympic Medalist, April Ross. This will allow our players to train and compete in style. Our players will be outfitted head to toe in Mizuno gear. We are thrilled our Club has this honor and we look forward to the partnership with Mizuno moving forward.
