Evaluation FAQ
Player evaluation
questions.
- What should a soccer player evaluation include?
- Ratings on specific skills in four areas: technical, tactical, physical and mental. Add one strength, one skill to work on next, and a short note. This template covers 30 soccer skills.
- How do you write a player evaluation?
- Rate each skill on one scale. Then write what you saw: one thing the player does well and one thing to work on, with a drill for it. Keep it specific to that player.
- How long should player evaluations take?
- Done once a year from memory, clubs tell us evaluations take days to weeks. With UpLVL, a coach speaks a 15 second note during practice and the report is built by the time practice ends.
- How often should players be evaluated?
- Often enough that parents see progress while the season is still going. UpLVL coaches speak short notes during practice, so the record builds as they go.
