ScoutsCapital Premium adds player performance analytics to grassroots football: a weekly Form Score, benchmarks and team reports, all from official match data.
For a year, the free ScoutsCapital profile has done one job well: turn the official match report into personal stats that are unbiased, on a personalised profile you can share. Today we're properly introducing ScoutsCapital Premium, the layer that adds player performance analytics for players and teams: a weekly Form Score, benchmarks against your position and division, and a monthly report for the coaching staff.
If you've followed this series, you know the order we built things in. First the data, straight from official match reports, which is why we only use official match stats. Then the app and web app around it, which we walked through in the new app and web app, explained. When we wrote about where ScoutsCapital is today, Premium was the next step. It's now live, and this post explains what it is, what stays free and who it's for.
Premium is an upgrade inside the same app and web app, for individual players and for whole teams. It doesn't change where the data comes from or who can see your basic profile. It adds the read on top: how you're playing this week compared with last week, where you stand against players in your position, and who has been looking at your profile.
We've tried to keep the line simple. Free gets you the profile, the fixtures and the league. Premium gets you the analysis. Both sit on exactly the same official match data, and nothing in Premium is a number someone typed in because they happened to like you.
This matters to us, so it comes first. Every grassroots player can claim a free profile with their official goals, minutes and appearances, plus results, lineups, the league table, achievements and shareable cards. XP, levels and the Arena are free too, because we want ScoutsCapital to be fun to use, not just useful. Arena challenges are open to every footballer registered to play in an official competition; fans can follow along, but the challenges are for players.
Your free profile also carries the hexagon: six attributes (pace, physical, passing, speed, defending and dribbling), each rated out of 10. These ratings work differently from your official stats. They're added by people who watch you play, from your coach and teammates to fans and you, so we keep them clearly apart from the numbers that come straight from the match report. Two kinds of data, each labelled for what it is.
We never wanted a model where the basics of your own football record sit behind a paywall. Your football player stats are yours. Premium is for the players and coaches who want to dig into them.
The centrepiece is the weekly Form Score. Each week your matches and training sessions become one score, with the trend behind it, so you can see whether you're rising, holding steady or dipping. Footballers have always felt form; now you can see it, week by week, without anyone's opinion in the way.
Around it sit the things players kept asking us for. Rankings show where you stand in your league and how far you've moved. Benchmarks put each of your attributes next to players in the same position. Advanced stats split home and away, pick out your best games and open the full detail of every match. And the Career tab, which is Premium only, brings far more of your data together than the free profile shows. It's the kind of depth pro player profiles have had for years, finally pointed at Sunday and Saturday football.
Then there's the part that helps with football career management. Premium turns your season into a PDF CV you can send to a coach, and it shows who has viewed your profile by name, role and club, rather than just a count. You also get your full visibility score across all six factors, with the one change that would lift it most.
Team Premium is for the coaching staff. The team gets its own weekly form score, split into attack, midfield and defence, and the whole squad's form sits on one screen. If a player dips three weeks running, staff see it before it shows on the pitch. The Development tab, only on Team Premium, goes much further into the squad's data. Think of it as advanced player analytics for clubs that don't have a performance analyst on the bench.
Staff can also compare the squad with every team in the division, follow the pace needed for promotion, the title or safety, and read a monthly report on the team's month. Every squad player's Premium card is visible to the staff, and the analysis stays internal: opponents and visitors never see it. Lineups, attendance, training and the calendar stay free, so this isn't team management software you have to pay for to run a Tuesday session. Premium is the football player management layer on top, with four staff seats so the coach, assistant and team manager each get their own access.
Because a form score is only worth something if nobody can game it. Self-rated performances drift upwards, and stats you log yourself depend on how honest and how organised you are that week. The Form Score uses the same official match reports as the rest of your profile, which usually reach it one to four hours after the final whistle, plus the training sessions your club adds.
That also means it's only as good as the data behind it. If something in a match report looks wrong on your profile, flag it with the bug-report tool in the app and we'll look into it. We'll keep sharpening the Form Score as more matches come in, because every extra week of data makes the comparisons fairer.
You can upgrade from the app on iOS and Android or from the web app, as a player or for a whole team. Everything that's included, side by side with the free plan, is on our Premium page.
If you haven't claimed your free profile yet, start there: your stats are probably already waiting for you. Look around, see your season in one place, and then decide whether you want the read on top. .
