Overview

The SOCCER-PAM Foundations Workshop is a comprehensive six-hour online learning experience designed specifically for soccer coaches, technical leaders, performance analysts, coach developers, learning facilitators, and soccer practitioners seeking to improve their ability to analyze, plan, implement, and evaluate performance.

This workshop introduces participants to SOCCER-PAM (Soccer Performance Analysis Model). This practical framework organizes performance analysis as a structured project rather than a collection of isolated observations, statistics, or reports.

Participants will discover how performance analysis can become a powerful tool for improving player development, team performance, coaching effectiveness, decision-making, and long-term program success.

Through real soccer examples and practical applications, attendees will learn how coaches can use SOCCER-PAM to create a clear link between analysis, planning, implementation, and measurable performance outcomes.
