How does the free assessment work?
You answer about 13 quick questions on your age, position, playing level, training, grades and an honest self-rating of your game. We organize your answers into the four pillars of player development (technical, physical, psychological and social) and give you a Player Development Score out of 100, with the areas that would help your game most right now. It takes about two minutes and the score is free.
Does the score predict whether I will play in college or professionally?
No, and be wary of anything that claims it can. The score describes your game as you report it on the day and organizes it into four development pillars. Whether a player goes on to play in college or at any other level depends on things no questionnaire can measure, like coaching, opportunity, growth, injuries, grades and being seen. Use the score to decide what to work on, not as a verdict.
What does the Player Development Score measure?
It summarizes what you tell us about your level, age, training, grades and your own rating of your game into four development pillars, using the scoring rules set out on our methodology page. The weighting is informed by published work on player development, the relative age effect and maturation, and late developers are not marked down for their size. It reflects your answers on the day, not a coach's measurement, and it does not predict the level you will reach.
How do you get recruited for college soccer?
Play at the highest level you can reach, perform in the showcases and ID camps college coaches actually attend, keep your grades up, and contact coaches directly - they recruit players who reach out. NCAA Division I and II coaches can generally start contacting you from June 15 after sophomore year. The 90-day Player Development Plan includes a step-by-step get-recruited checklist and a copy-paste email you can send to college coaches.
Can parents take the test for their child?
Yes. The assessment is for players aged 8 to 30, and for a player under 16 a parent or guardian fills it in with them and makes any purchase. The plan gives parents a realistic, pressure-free picture of the pathway with concrete ways to support development, from training structure to tryouts and recruiting.
What do I get in the 90-day Player Development Plan for $12.99?
90 days of structured development, starting from your result: your full plan from this assessment: the four pillars explained, your position profile and the routes open at your age and level; two priority areas for the 90 days, with a weekly training structure; a checklist of the recommended actions to check off as you go; up to 6 check-in assessments before your last day, each with its own updated plan; your starting point and every check-in side by side, pillar by pillar, with a trend for each area once there are three results; four standard physical tests with set procedures: record your results and see your latest against your first, like for like; email reminders to check in around day 30 and day 60, and a note before it ends. You pay once. It ends automatically after 90 days: it does not renew and does not turn into a subscription. The plans you received stay readable afterwards.
What does the Progress Tracker cost?
The Progress Tracker is a separate subscription at $3.99 a month. It renews every month until you cancel, and you can cancel anytime. It charts your Player Development Score across unlimited reassessments and reminds you to retest, so you can see how each part of your game changes month by month.
