How Our System Supports Coaches

Our system allows coaches to pinpoint areas for growth in each athlete quickly and accurately. By analyzing key mental and performance metrics, coaches can create tailored development plans that strengthen skills, resilience, and focus. Using the data, they can help athletes build the right habits and mindsets for long-term success.

The software also tracks team-wide performance over time, giving coaches a clear picture of overall progress. With real-time insights and reporting, coaches can provide personalized feedback, adjust strategies, and maintain a consistent approach to cultivating an athletic mindset for coaches across the entire team.

On Saturday we when to a 1v1 shootout and one of the girls I had in the lineup says something to the effect of - “My assessment said I have a hard time under pressure and this is what I need to do” and she referenced relaxation techniques, and then when out a scored a huge goal for us!
