Personal - Assessment Session

Take the first step in your player’s development journey with a personalized Player Assessment Session.

During this 45–50 minute evaluation, our professional coaching staff will assess your player across Next Gen’s Four Pillars of Development: Technical, Tactical, Physical, and Mental. This holistic approach ensures we gain a complete understanding of how your player performs both with and without the ball—capturing their skill level, decision-making ability, movement efficiency, and mindset during training.

To provide accurate and objective feedback, we use Playermaker performance technology, allowing us to collect detailed metrics and insights, including:

  • Sprint speed

  • Kicking power

  • Right vs. left foot usage and balance

  • Turning speed and agility

  • Movement patterns and total touches

In addition to data collection, our coaches conduct an individualized technical assessment covering:

  • Footwork in tight spaces and at speed

  • First touch and ball control

  • Passing and receiving technique

  • Finishing mechanics and striking form

  • Confidence, competitiveness, and responsiveness to coaching

Each assessment is measured using age-appropriate developmental standards created by Next Gen, ensuring fair, accurate, and meaningful results.

Follow the Next Gen’s Four Pillars of Development — Technical, Tactical, Physical, and Mental — ensuring players grow in skill, understanding, and confidence.

  • A player’s ability to control, move, and manipulate the ball with confidence and intention. These are the core physical skills that allow players to perform effectively in training and game situations. Technical development grows over time, progressing from basic ball handling to advanced control and precision.

  • A player’s understanding of the game itself—how to move, position, and make decisions based on what’s happening around them. While technical skills are about what a player can do with the ball, tactical skills guide when, where, and why they make those choices.

  • A player’s athletic ability to move efficiently, powerfully, and confidently on the field. These abilities support everything a player does with and without the ball, helping them perform consistently throughout training and competition.

  • A player’s mindset, emotional maturity, and ability to stay focused, resilient, and engaged in both training and game environments. These qualities influence how a player responds to challenges, receives feedback, and continues developing over time.

The assessment provides real, measurable insight into how a player performs both on the ball and in decision-making moments, giving our coaches a clear understanding of their technical sharpness, physical capabilities, tactical awareness, and mental approach to the game.

After the session, your coach will evaluate the assessment data and provide a 10–15 minute recap and consultation. You’ll review results, discuss key strengths and areas for improvement, and map out the most effective training path — including recommended classes, programs, or personal training levels (Bronze, Silver, or Gold).

This session is ideal for all levels of players — from beginners establishing their foundation to advanced athletes looking to refine performance and elevate their game
