Coaches support players. Clubs support coaches. Associations support clubs.
In each community, associations play a critical role in helping youth soccer thrive. The more an association understands about the experiences (players, parents, coaches, referees, etc.) in their community, the more likely they are to find ways to improve. Below are three examples of how associations can use Satori services to grow the game.
Player Participation
Measure retention, new player recruitment, relative age effect, participation by zip code, and more in our Association Analytics program. Compare your numbers to benchmarks to identify relative strengths & weaknesses compared to industry averages.
Encourage GRO Program Participation
Since youth sport experiences are made at the team level, let’s work together to help more clubs in your community participate in Satori’s GRO Program. The better that clubs understand their participation and player experience, the more likely they are to improve it. Associations can then offer additional consulting value to their member clubs by identifying and sharing great ideas throughout their network for the benefit of all.
Referee Experience
With referee numbers dropping in most communities, more must be done to reverse the trend. Work with us to learn more about why some referees quit, why others stay, and what can be done to improve the situation. Referees are an essential part of sport so let’s work together to measure, analyze, and improve their experience.
