How Playrbook GA Works From Hudl Export to GA Packet — In Under 5 Minutes
Playrbook GA takes the self-scout work a Division I graduate assistant spends their weekend on and automates it. Here's exactly what happens between uploading your CSV and getting your 6-page GA packet.
THREE STEPS. ONE PACKET. EVERY WEEK.

Start with a CSV from your film platform. Two minutes later, you've got your packet.

01
UPLOAD YOUR DATA
Export your game data from Hudl or JustPlay. Drop the CSV into Playrbook GA.
WHAT HAPPENS
Drag and drop (or click to upload) your game CSV.
Works with single-game exports or multi-game season files.
Playrbook GA reads every play, every column, every row — even if your export is messy.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
A Hudl or JustPlay account.
A game or season CSV export.
02
TEACH IT YOUR LANGUAGE (ONCE)
Every staff calls things differently. Playrbook GA learns your system on your first upload — and remembers it forever.
WHAT HAPPENS
The first time you upload, you'll quickly confirm how your formations, personnel groupings, and concepts map to standard football terminology.
Call it "Gun Trey" instead of "11 Personnel Trips"? No problem.
Have four different names for the same Y-cross concept across the season? Playrbook GA reconciles them.
Your terminology is saved to your account. Every future upload skips this step.
WHY THIS MATTERS
Most tools force you into their terminology. Playrbook GA speaks yours. Your packet reads like your playbook, not someone else's.
03
GET YOUR WEEKLY GA PACKET
A 6-page scouting packet, structured the exact same way every week. Open it on the weekend, present it to your staff on Monday.
WHAT'S IN EVERY PACKET:
Executive Snapshot — A one-page orientation — your top severity-flagged tendencies before you read anything else. The biggest risks, ranked first.
Identity & Tendencies — Who your offense actually is: run/pass splits by down and distance, clear tendencies — not guesswork.
Situational Football — Third down, red zone, long yardage — every situation where predictability hurts you gets flagged when it crosses a threshold.
Formation & Personnel Tells — Your top formations mapped to tendencies. If a formation is leaking a tell, you'll see it here.
Player Usage Snapshot — QB tendencies, target distribution, and critical-down usage — know when a player is getting over-featured.
Final GA Summary & Action Items — The install page: what to break, what to keep, what to emphasize — one clear focus your whole staff can align on.
YOUR WEEKLY RHYTHM
Same six-page structure every week — no rebuilding spreadsheets.
Open it on the weekend; walk your staff through it on Monday install.
Use the final summary as your install checklist — everyone aligns on what to break and what to emphasize.

HOW COACHES ACTUALLY USE IT
MORNING AFTER THE GAME
Pull your Hudl export from Friday or Saturday’s game. Upload to Playrbook GA. Grab coffee. Packet is ready.
WEEKEND FILM SESSION WITH STAFF
Pull up Page 1 of the packet. Your coordinator sees the top 5 flags at a glance. Down-and-distance tendencies are already broken out. No spreadsheet-building required.
MONDAY INSTALL
Flip to Page 6. The Top Tendencies to Break, Identity Anchors to Keep, and Situations to Emphasize give you your install agenda. The player-ready action items drop straight into your team app or pre-practice meeting.
THROUGHOUT THE SEASON:
Track how your tendencies evolve. Last 3 games, last 6 games, full season — spot when you’re becoming predictable before your opponents do.
