Requirements

Access to match footage you are permitted to use, and a Hudl account — the free tier is sufficient for every exercise in this course.

Tools covered

  • Hudl
  • Video coding
  • Session planning templates

Common questions

  • Do I need my own footage?

    Sample footage is provided for every exercise, but working on matches from your own team makes the development planning module far more useful.

  • Does this cover GPS and load management?

    Only in outline. GPS tracking and load management are covered properly in the Level 2 Coaching & Scouting certification.

  • Is there a final exam?

    No. Level 1 is assessed by module quizzes, scored instantly, with unlimited retakes.

  • Is there a deadline to finish?

    No. Access is lifetime and the course is entirely self-paced.
