✓
One conversation. A useful record. The observation, the player’s voice and the next step — in one place.
03 / A CONTINUOUS CONVERSATION
Progress is a process.
Keep it moving.
A useful review doesn’t end with a score. It gives the player a clear next step, the coach a focus, and both of them a reason to come back to the conversation.
01
ASSESS
Understand before you act.
Bring together observations from training and matches, the four development dimensions, and the player’s own perspective.
THE QUESTION TO ASK
“What are you noticing — and what feels difficult right now?”
↳ Leave with a shared picture, not just a score.
02
AGREE
Choose a focus together.
Turn the conversation into one or two specific priorities. Agree what the player will practise and how the coach will support them.
AN EXAMPLE PRIORITY
“Check over your shoulder before receiving in the next two training games.”
↳ Leave with a clear action the player can own.
03
DEVELOP
Make the plan part of practice.
Create opportunities to work on the priority. Keep brief, specific observations as it develops — including what the player notices.
WHAT TO CAPTURE
“Scanned earlier in the small-sided game. Still needs a reminder when the pressure increases.”
↳ Build evidence from everyday coaching.
04
REVIEW
Reflect. Adjust. Go again.
Return to the agreed priority. Compare observations, listen to the player, and decide whether to build on the same focus or move forward.
BRING IT BACK TO THE PLAYER
“What feels different now? What would help you take this into a match?”
↳ Agree the next action and the next review date.
