The 5-Step Process

How It Works

A clear, structured process designed to give your family the honest picture and the right next steps — without the noise.

Step 01 of 05
Player, parent and coach — answered separately

Three Independent Voices

The player, a parent or guardian and the player's coach each complete their own structured questionnaire — independently, so nobody's answers colour anyone else's. Together they cover the player's situation, ambitions, development, education, finances and the decisions the family is facing.

Timeline: 20–30 mins each
Completed online at your own pace — each voice answers privately.
What This Step Produces
ACTIVE
01
Player self-assessment — profile, ambition, readiness, wellbeing
02
Parent / guardian perspective — commitment, priorities, trade-offs
03
Coach assessment — technical, physical, trajectory, environment fit
04
Player profile — football CV, testing, academics and media
Assessment Inputs

We Hear From Everyone

Football decisions affect the whole family — and the coach sees things neither of you can. Player, parent and coach each answer independently, and the report shows where those three views align and where they pull apart.

Input 01

Player Questionnaire

We ask the player directly — not through their parents. Their honest voice shapes a meaningful part of the report.

  • Current football environment and status
  • Ambition, motivation and life goals
  • Wellbeing and readiness
Input 02

Parent / Guardian Questionnaire

Parents often carry different hopes, fears and constraints to the player. We capture that reality separately.

  • Time and financial commitment
  • Priorities and concerns
  • Family circumstances
Input 03

Coach Assessment

An invited coach gives the independent technical view — the part families can't self-report.

  • Technical and physical assessment
  • Potential and development trajectory
  • Environment and pathway fit

Our Commitment

Independence Matters

This is the thing that makes our advice different from almost everyone else in football.

Why most advice is biased

Most people advising your family — agents, coaches, academy scouts, private trainers — have a commercial interest in your decision. They earn money when you choose a specific path. That creates a conflict of interest, whether they intend it or not.

An agent who earns a fee for placing a player at a particular club will naturally lean toward recommending that club. An academy coach who runs a development programme will naturally suggest you invest in more training. None of this is necessarily dishonest — but it isn't independent.

Why our advice is different

We are not agents. We do not place players. We are not affiliated with any club, academy, development programme, or agent network. We earn our fee from you — and only from you. That means our only job is to give you the most honest, accurate picture we can.

If the best pathway for your son is to leave his current academy, we'll say so. If the right move is to stay put and develop for another year, we'll say that too. We follow the evidence — not a commission structure.

No Agent Ties

We are not registered agents and receive no placement fees from clubs or academies.

No Commercial Bias

We have no financial incentive to steer you toward any specific pathway or programme.

Family First

Our fee comes from you. Our loyalty is to you. That's the only way independence works.
