Module 2

Mental performance diagnostics

Making measurable what is otherwise just a gut feeling.

You measure sprint values, pass completion and running lines; mentally it usually stays a gut feeling. The diagnostics captures ten performance-relevant dimensions: seven individual ones such as pressure resistance, error processing and decision making, and three team dimensions such as communication, trust and cohesion. The analysis takes around twelve minutes per player and gives you a picture you can act on directly in training.

What's included

Every part of this module at a glance.

Ten dimensions: seven individual performance factors plus three team factors
Team heatmap with every player and every dimension, so outliers jump straight out
Strength profiles per unit: defence, midfield, attack, goalkeeper
Re-assessments every 6 to 8 weeks make development measurable, not just claimable
Benchmark comparisons against other teams at the same league level
Individual development curves per player across the whole season

Recommendations for you as a coach

Concretely: what you see in the data and what you do about it.

Set a training focus

What you see

The heatmap shows pressure resistance in midfield at 54.

What you do

Put the matchday routine on the final ten minutes and train shooting decisions under time pressure, instead of prescribing more mental training in general.

React earlier

What you see

Two players measurably drop off after conceding twice in a row.

What you do

React early at the second goal conceded in a row: a short word from the touchline, before the opponent's run builds.

Evidence the progress

What you see

The squad's error processing rises by 12 points over eight weeks.

What you do

Show the curve in the season review with the board and parents, and keep the measure that triggered the rise.

Stabilise the dressing room early

What you see

Team trust and communication fall across two consecutive measurements.

What you do

Set a team task with clear roles and hold one-on-ones with the three players whose values drop the most.

Preview

Example data from a sample team. This is how the analysis looks in your coach dashboard.

Development curves at player level

Pressure resistance across six measurement points in a season.

Player A

Rises from 54 to 78. The work on the closing stages is paying off.

Increase the challenge: practise situations from the final ten minutes and penalties with him in training.

Player B

Falls from 61 to 56 and has stagnated for three measurements.

Switch his exercise plan to error processing and hold a one-on-one in two weeks about load outside the club.
