Surprisingly our high school is completely lacking in any type A/V editing equipment. I say surprisingly because our new high school was supposed to be a technological masterpiece. However, they do provide digital cameras for the sports programs to use so I downloaded the matches to my personal laptop using a FireWire and then edited the video using both MovieMaker and a WinDVD program. Both came standard on my laptop which I bought this past summer and used as a nice tax write-off this past week. Unless your school has readily available equipment or you have decent computer of your own, I am not sure where to go. Some schools have video yearbook clubs that follow a team each season. We don't but some do.
In the old days I used to fuse two VCRs together and connect a stereo to the VCR for some tunes. Bottom line, I just got frustated with what the school had available and went and bought a new computer. If your wife is like mine, she will not appreciate this expenditure, so you will have to press the necessity for a new computer that will have nothing to do with wrestling and then "mysteriously discover all of the neat programs on it that will really help your wrestling team" that you knew nothing about.
We ended up with a pretty good highlight DVD. One of these years we will actually have a good state tournamnet and then it will be really good.
If you want to see one, just e-mail me and I will arrange for you to get one for a small donation. I cannot charge you a fee per se since i did not seek permission to use the songs of Motley Crue, Metallica and such.
