01 / THE VISION

NOT ANOTHER
TOURNAMENT.

The Downtown Showdown was created to give girls flag football athletes the type of stage, attention and experience normally reserved for major collegiate events.

From the Thursday night Leadership Summit through Championship Day, every detail is designed to make athletes feel seen, valued and connected to something larger than a final score.

Coverage

One scheduled game receives priority shot-list placement ahead of All-Access and Photos. Coverage focuses on your athlete's involvement and the strongest available action.

Editing & deliverables

Twelve selected photos and five trimmed clips are delivered separately. Those captured plays also supply one 20–30 second vertical reel with an athlete title and simple transitions. The reel uses the same coverage, not an additional shoot.

Selected photos are individually cropped and adjusted for color, exposure and clarity. Finished photos are delivered as downloadable, high-resolution JPEGs; video clips and reels are delivered as MP4 files for personal sharing.

Limited

Before you reserve. Photo and clip quantities below are planned delivery targets. Actual coverage depends on playing time, the game schedule and usable footage. Your reservation gives the media team the information needed to plan coverage. Coverage assignments and delivery timing will be confirmed ahead of the tournament.

KNOW WHAT'S INCLUDED

From the field
to your camera roll.

One athlete. A defined collection. Digital files to keep.

How is my athlete covered?

Each package covers one named athlete at Downtown Showdown. Your team, jersey number and schedule notes create the media team's shot list. Coverage is shared across athletes, with Elite first, then All-Access and Photos. Priority determines the order of planned coverage; it does not assign a photographer exclusively to one athlete or include every play.

What is an individual video clip?

An individual clip is one selected play, trimmed into a short video. Clips are separate files with basic trimming, not a highlight film, full-game recording or complete raw footage collection.

What goes into the highlight reel?

A highlight reel combines selected captured plays into one vertical edit with an athlete name and jersey-number title. The listed running time is the target length, subject to usable footage. One finished edit is included; extra versions and revision rounds are not included.

How do we receive the files?

Selected photos are individually cropped and adjusted for color, exposure and clarity. Finished photos are delivered as downloadable, high-resolution JPEGs; video clips and reels are delivered as MP4 files for personal sharing. Delivery timing and access details will be confirmed by the event team before payment. Printed products and expedited delivery are not included.
