WILMINGTON, MA. Sept. 30, 2021 – 3STEP Sports, the nation’s largest youth sports club and event operator, has acquired Next Level Video (NLV), a best-in-class digital service, to boost video offerings at events and offer an array of digital products to customers.
NLV has established a stellar reputation in the youth sports space since launching in 2011 with several services, including large-scale tournament filming of every game on every filed, live streaming, and individual player highlight reels. In aligning with 3STEP, NLV will provide video services at events and recruiting reels for athletes in a variety of sports.
“Video is often an afterthought by youth sport groups and event providers,” said 3STEP Sports Founder and CEO David Geaslen. “Having a good experience with a video provider is vital to the success of a tournament. NLV is the best in the business and always puts the customer first.”
All of NLV’s videos are edited and produced in-house. They have the ability to add footage from any film source. Individual highlight videos include a profile, are updatable, mobile-friendly and feature isolation effects on every play.
“Partnering with 3STEP will take the NLV product to a new level,” said Next Level Video CEO John Peruso. “Not only is the importance of having youth sports game film and media coverage growing, but the necessity to provide a quality product is, too. We have always made customer service a priority for all stakeholders, and with our expanded 3STEP portfolio we will continue to deliver a superior product.”
The 3STEP reach spans 40+ states and serves more than 2.5 million athletes across eight sports through industry-leading events, nationally spanning club programs, premier media content and more. The mission of 3STEP is to be the standard of the youth sports experience and create consistency in the industry.
In bolstering its video offerings, 3STEP is looking to add more value, exposure and attention to all its events and the teams and athletes that participate in them.
“NLV delivers quality, handles high volume of product, is logistically super easy to work with as an event provider, has a top-notch platform and technology, and their customer service is excellent,” said Geaslen. “Choosing them is a no-brainer.”
