What clubs and families are saying

We used to hand out paper evaluations at the end of the season, if they happened at all. Consistency across coaches and levels was the real challenge. TryoutScout gave us a shared framework where athletes reflect on their own development alongside their coaches. Now growth shows up everywhere, from our youngest teams to our most competitive. The IDPs didn't just change how we evaluate; they changed how we coach.

Technical Director

Youth Soccer Program

I didn't expect the process to change how my son approaches the game, but it did. The ongoing reflection gave him a way to make sense of setbacks, and somewhere along the season he started seeking out those conversations with his coaches. Watching it happen on his own was more than I could have asked for.

How it works

Common questions about player development

What is an Individual Development Plan (IDP)?

An IDP is a structured, player-centered development plan written by your coach each season. It identifies your child's specific strengths, areas for improvement, and sets exact, measurable goals — not generic advice, but a plan built around this player at this stage. Coaches and athletes hold regular check-ins throughout the season to track progress and adjust as the athlete grows. IDPs are used at elite academies worldwide and are a core methodology of US Youth Soccer.

How is this different from a typical end-of-season report?

A traditional report is a snapshot — a rating handed to a family at the end of the year and forgotten. An IDP is a living document. Coaches and players set measurable goals together, track progress throughout the season, and adjust the plan as the athlete grows. Every plan is stored permanently on the athlete's profile, so you see the full arc of development across multiple seasons — not just the current one.

Does my child have a say in their own development plan?

Yes — and that's by design. Athletes complete a structured self-reflection each season alongside their coach's evaluation. Both perspectives are on record in the same place. This teaches players to take ownership of their own development, which US Soccer identifies as a core principle of effective youth player growth.
