But how does doing discrete exercises done in a controlled manner say anything about a players soccer abilities? I mean 20 juggles alternate, weak and strong foot? That’s such an insultingly low standard. What MLSNext player can’t do that?

not to quibble with your assessment, but before you film, it's 20 seconds, I think. Not 20 juggles.

And I don't think it's just whether your player can do it, it's the control and compared with others.

same with a 10m sprint. Of course everyone can do it, but how do they compare.

Ok, I stand corrected about the juggles. Still don't think it's that high of a standard (I'm pretty sure everyone on DS's team can do it) but that makes sense about it being an exercise in seeing how you compare with others. I *still* don't think this is a complete assessment bc what's the point of these skills/athleticism if you don't know how to use them effectively in games, no? But maybe they'll combine it with Taka scores so figure stuff out. Who knows. I think I'm just annoyed having to spend more time on this just so DS can play.

Ok I'll bite. For those not in the know, what is the "AI scout?

Our 1st team just got the mandate, our 2nd team was told to do it weeks ago.

Isn't that just for the 2nd teams?

Our clubs email says it’s for both homegrown and academy

Ours said both also

My son got it for U16 homegrown.
