When

As soon as the Profiler is done, and again whenever you need to show somebody.

Why

It is the artefact you own. A badge application, an academy interview or a parent conversation all go better with it.

The mistake most coaches make

Waiting until you need it. A report generated the week before an interview shows one reading; a report generated every few months shows a direction, and a direction is far more persuasive than a score.

One report

  • ·A snapshot
  • ·Could be a good week
  • ·No context

Three reports over a year

  • A trajectory
  • Harder to fake
  • Shows you kept going
What a reader takes from it

In practice

Coaches attach it to applications. It is the only document most grassroots coaches have that describes their coaching rather than their qualifications.

Profiler report

Open it and try it on one session

You will not get anything out of a single entry, and that is the honest answer. Profiler report is inside the platform. Setting up takes a couple of minutes and needs no payment details.
