Questions
Before you ask support
Will I be charged?
Sign up before October 13: 14 days free, then your subscription starts at 20% off with code 20CYFI27.
Sign up October 13 or later: free through the March 14, 2027 showcase game with code CYFIBUFFS5. Your first month is charged on March 15, 2027.
Either way a card is required up front. Cancel before your free period ends and nothing is charged. Cancel after the showcase game and the charge has already gone through — it is not refunded.
Can someone build the reel for me?
Yes. Our team gets access to your game film and produces the highlight reel for you.
$597 before October 13 with promo code CYFIPRO. $697 once nominations open — the CYFIPRO code expires with the early-bird window.
What can I upload?
Video files directly, or imported links from Hudl, Veo, Trace, and Pixellot.
My film is already on Hudl or YouTube. How do I get it over?
Choose Add video, then Import from platform, and paste your link. Once the import finishes you can start cutting highlights from it.
I already have a finished highlight reel. Can I just upload that?
You can upload the file, but that alone does not qualify. You still have to re-clip the individual highlights inside Sports Reelz and add them to your highlight reel tab — that is the format CYFI evaluators review.
My film is uploaded. Now what?
Create highlights from that film, add each one to your highlight reel, then submit the CYFI nomination form once it opens October 13.
I used Sports Reelz for CYFI last year. Do I start over?
No. Log in with the same email address you used last season and renew — your existing profile and film are still there. Watch the renewal tutorial in step 1.
