The clean and intuitive interface allows you to create new reports without much effort. We’re going to go through each section of the scout report and explain in simple terms what it’s trying to tell you. There are two types of reports you can create:

  1. Match Report: Shape a professional match report on a team level and rate more than one player

  2. Player Report: Create a single scouting report on an individual player level


Match Report

Here's the procedure to add a new match report:

  1. Click on CREATE REPORT.

  2. Click on MATCH REPORT.

  3. Select the relevant league name.
    (If the league you're looking for is not listed within the country dropdowns, choose NO LEAGUE at the top of list)

  4. Enter your match opponents, location, date and kick-off time.

  5. Tap on SAVE to create the report card.

#HINT: If the team is not recognized in the database, you can easily add a new team to your personal database manually by clicking CREATE TEAM.

LINE-UP: Quickly select who take part in your matches and assign their position via drag and drop by tapping this icon.

FORMATION: Use the extensive formation options at the top to visualise your line-ups.

SAVE LINE-UP: Save a modified line-up for any upcoming matches of this team.

MATCH RECORDING: Start the match timer to record ratings, notes and events on a complete timeline of the action.


Player Report

Here's the procedure to add a report on an individual player level:

  1. Click on SINGLE PLAYER REPORT.

  2. Select the relevant league name.
    (If the league you're looking for is not listed within the country dropdowns, choose NO LEAGUE at the top of list)

  3. Enter your match opponents, location, date and kick-off time.

  4. Select the relevant player name.

  5. Tap on SAVE to create the report card.

#HINT: If the player is not recognized in the database, you can easily add a new player to your personal database manually by clicking CREATE PLAYER.

POSITION: Quickly select the player's position for the match by tapping on the relevant position bubble.

FORMATION: Use the extensive formation options at the top to visualise the line-up.

MATCH RECORDING: Start the match timer to record ratings, notes and events on a complete timeline of the action.


Assign a report to a group member

When you're ready to decide who's doing what, you can assign reports to group members. You can assign someone when you create a report. Just tap on ASSIGN MATCH TO USER and choose the relevant team member from the list.

The team member that you assign the match to, will receive a direct message from Scoutpad to advise them that they have been assigned a new match. The report card is then duplicated to the account of the assigned scout.

You can keep yourself up to date on the report's process at any time within your reports section. When the scout completes the report, you'll receive a notification too.
