Generally, players are rated on a scale of 1-5 with
‘5’ being a player most effective on the outcome of the game and
‘1’ being a player least effective on the outcome of the game:
5 = Exceptional skills and athleticism; one of the top players in the age division; can dominate a game with a combination of player’s soccer skills, speed/physicality, aggressiveness/effort, etc.
4 = Very skilled relative to peer players within division; very active player with strong effort and always contributing during games whether as an effective defender, attacker, or goal keeper (or all of the above.)
3 = Average or “typical” fundamental skills for their age and relative to peer players; player puts forth good effort; often active and contributes during games.
2 = Low-skilled player relative to peer players within division, but puts forth good effort OR average skill but puts forth low or very “distracted” effort.

A comments field is available for each player. Where applicable, please use the comments field for greater context to a player’s rating. Example: does player enjoy or is skilled as a goalkeeper; does a player have lots of conflicts effecting attendance? Is the player often disruptive in games or practice? These are all good things to know as we distribute players onto teams for next season.
