The Detroit Lions announced the continuation of the football education program Detroit Lions Michigan High School Football Game of the Week, now powered by Hudl.
The program will relaunch its new format the week of August 23, where the Lions will showcase one top game from a selection of games provided by the Michigan High School Football Coaches Association (MHSFCA). During a 48-hour window each week of the Michigan high school football regular season, schools, communities and high school football fans can vote at www.detroitlions.com/highschool for their game to be selected.

“We couldn’t be more excited to start up our Michigan High School Football Game of the Week program again and to bring Hudl into the fold,” said Detroit Lions Director of Football Education Chris Fritzsching. “Youth football – and high school football specifically – is a bedrock in many communities throughout the state. Not only does this initiative bring a spotlight to several teams, the technology Hudl offers elevates the game to new heights.”
Using video-sharing service Hudl, video content from each participating team will be used to compile a highlight package for weekly review. This highlight package of the Detroit Lions Michigan High School Football Game of the Week will be distributed via Lions Football Education social media accounts and posted on www.detroitlions.com each weekend. Hudl provides video review and performance analysis tools for sports teams and athletes at every level.
The partnership between the Detroit Lions and Hudl would be the first of its kind relative to High School Game of the Week programming across the NFL.
