Highlight reels for sports parents

ReelBallers turns the game footage already on your phone into a highlight you can send with one link. You mark the plays worth keeping and frame your player while you watch; it handles the cutting and the generation.

The footage problem every sports parent has

You have hours of game video. It is wide, it is shaky in places, your child is small in the frame, and nobody has ever watched it back, including your child. It sits on a phone until the storage warning arrives.

The barrier is not motivation, it is that editing it is genuinely tedious. Finding the four good minutes inside two hours, then cropping each one so your kid is actually visible, is an evening of work per game with normal editing software.

What changes

You watch the game once, the way you would anyway, tap to mark the moments worth keeping, and drag the crop over your player a few times per clip. ReelBallers connects the motion in between and produces your highlight: your athlete stays in focus, zoomed in and sharp, and you get a link.

Because each clip is tagged, the library compounds. By mid-season you can pull every goal, or everything from one tournament, without touching the original footage again.

Sharing with family who are not technical

A shared highlight is a link. Whoever opens it needs a web browser and nothing else: no app, no account, no sign-up wall. That matters more than it sounds when the audience is grandparents.

It plays at full resolution rather than the compressed version a messaging app would produce, which is usually the difference between being able to follow the play and not.

And for your athlete

You can leave notes on specific moments, so feedback happens on the sofa at their pace instead of in the car on the way home. Some families find that alone is worth more than the highlight.

What people are saying

I like that you can create a reel based on options like games and stars. Really helps for Instagram posts too. The heavy lifting is already done for you.

My mom is always asking me to “send the video” when she can't attend my daughter's games. Now I can send her a high res 3 minute highlight reel with a spotlight so she can actually see what's going on.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any editing experience?

No. You mark the plays worth keeping while you watch the game, then frame your athlete. Cutting, smoothing the motion between your marks, and generating are automatic.

Do I need to buy a camera?

No. The footage on your phone is fine. Film wide and steady, then frame your player yourself and let the crop do the zoom.

How long does it take to make a highlight?

The work is roughly the length of the game, since you mark plays while watching it. There is no separate editing session afterwards.

Can my family watch without signing up?

Yes. A shared highlight opens as a link in any web browser, at full resolution, with no account required.

Can I make a version for Instagram?

Yes. The same highlight is generated in more than one aspect ratio, so a wide version and a vertical version come from the same work.

What if I have footage from several different cameras?

That is fine. Phone video, action camera video, and exports from team camera systems can all be uploaded and used together.
