See where every player is growing.

Read from your own assessments, skill by skill over the season, next to the sessions where you coached each one. The skills you've worked on for weeks without your read moving stand out too. In words, never a number.

Growth over the season.

Each line is your read of one skill: below, at or above level for this player. Beneath it, every session where your notes name the skill. On the player's evaluation on the web, review the new evidence for a read and reconfirm it or change it. Each re-read adds a point to the line, and the skill says what it shows: Growing when your read moved up after you coached it, Stalled when it hasn't moved while you've been working on it, or Holding.

Who's growing, across the team.

Every player on one page, by area: technical, tactical, physical, psychological. Each cell names the skills that are growing, or where your read hasn't moved, and every player opens to their own lines.

No scores and no leaderboard. Coaches see their own teams; your club's directors see every team.

Growth across the team

4 of 6 players growing in at least one area · 2 with a read that hasn't moved while you worked on it.

A demo team. Players are in roster order, the order the coach set, never by who's growing most.

The coaching record.

One capsule for each stretch of coaching on a focus, one dot for each session with a note about it. Watch Ella's autumn fill in, then pick any stretch to see what was said.

Length is time, not amount. Nothing here rates the player.

Example season with a demo player.

The whole season on one map.

Coaching here runs on one vocabulary of 164 skills across four domains. Each player's map shows how often the coaching touched each skill, in rings, and what the coach has assessed, in colour. Anything not yet assessed stays in fog.

What families see.

Their own child's record, in the coach's words, once the coach has approved it. The growth view, the map and the coach's assessments stay with the coaches.
After each session
The coach's approved notes for their child, and the week's drills.
Every month
A report on their child's month, including where they're growing, which the coach reads and approves before it is sent.
In the Family Hub
Notes received, drills completed and a practice streak. No rankings, and no comparisons with other children.

Questions about player development

Do you score players' progress?
No. Growth shows in words: Growing, when your read of a skill moved up after you coached it, or a read that hasn't moved while you've been working on it. No 1-to-100 score, and nothing that ranks players against each other.
What does Stalled mean?
Between two of your reads you coached the skill in three or more sessions while it was below level, or mostly to fix it, and your read didn't move. It's a prompt to look again or try another way in. It describes your read, not the player, and it stays with you and your club's directors: families never see it.
Does the AI decide who's improving?
No. Only your own reads move a skill. On a player's evaluation on the web, Coach Sidekick shows the evidence since your last read; you reconfirm the read or change it, and each re-read is kept with the notes it cited. A passing mention doesn't count, and the recordings never judge how well a player does it; they only show where you coached it.
What about coaching that wasn't recorded?
Only recorded, reviewed sessions show as coaching. Coaching outside them can't be seen here, and the record says so.
Who sees growth and the assessments?
The Growth tab, the team view and your reads: the player's coaches and your club's directors. Families see their own child's notes, drills and monthly report, which can say in words where their child is growing, but never your reads or the Stalled label.
Where do coaches find it?
On the web: the Growth tab on every player's profile, and Growth across the team on each team's page, next to the coaching record and the coach's evaluation.
