Evaluation & Feedback

PlayerUp helps coaches give structured, actionable feedback after every session or game. Instead of ad-hoc comments or scattered notes, coaches can quickly evaluate players across key skill areas, communicate progress, and keep a running record of development over time.

Overview

After each practice or game, coaches can assess athletes on custom or pre-set performance pillars — such as technical skill, teamwork, effort, or decision-making. Each evaluation is shared with the player and optionally the team, creating a consistent, transparent feedback loop.

Feedback is both quantitative (through 1–5 ratings) and qualitative (through short notes or voice comments). Players can respond directly, building a continuous conversation that connects every event to individual growth.

Who it's for:

  • Coaches who want to track player development in a structured, repeatable way
  • Players who want clear, consistent input to understand how to improve
  • Organizations seeking visibility into player progress across teams

How it works

  1. Start from any event
    After a practice or game, a coach opens the session in the app and selects the “Evaluate Players” option.
  2. Rate performance across pillars
    Each player can be rated 1–5 in key categories defined by the coach or organization (e.g. Effort, Awareness, Skill Execution, Team Play).
  3. Add feedback notes or voice comments
    Coaches can include short text notes or record voice feedback, making it easy to capture specific, contextual observations.
  4. Share with players
    Once submitted, evaluations automatically notify players. Players can view their scores, read notes, and reply directly to their coach if enabled.
  5. Track progress over time
    All evaluations roll up into each player’s profile, feeding analytics views and trend charts to highlight growth or areas needing attention.

Key Benefits

  • Structured and consistent communication
    Every evaluation uses the same framework, keeping feedback aligned across coaches and sessions.
  • Better player engagement
    Players receive timely, specific, and motivational insights — and can respond, ask questions, or acknowledge feedback.
  • Quantifiable development data
    Numeric scores create a measurable record that helps coaches track improvement, identify patterns, and plan next steps.
  • Time-saving for coaches
    Pre-filled pillars and quick rating workflows make evaluations fast to complete after each event.
  • Integrated with analytics and messaging
    Evaluations automatically power progress tracking and are visible in communication threads for context-rich discussions.
