The four corners
Scored the way academies actually assess players

Technical & Tactical
First touch, passing, dribbling, finishing and reading the game.
Physical
Speed, strength and stamina, adjusted for late developers so nobody is written off early.
Psychological
Work rate, resilience and coachability, the traits that most separate players who make it.

Your training environment, commitment and the standards around you.

An honest promise
No hype. Just your real starting point.
Fewer than 1% of academy players, and a far smaller fraction of all youth players, become professionals. Football Reach will never pretend otherwise. What it does is show you where you really stand and give you the clearest possible next steps to reach your own ceiling.
Fewer than 1% make it. The plan is for the 100% who want to find their real ceiling anyway.

Questions
Everything players and parents ask us
How does the football potential test work?
You answer about 12 quick questions on your age, position, playing level, training and an honest self-rating of your game. Our scoring engine weighs eight research-backed factors, the same things academies actually select on, and gives you a Pro Potential Score out of 100 with a development band. It takes about two minutes and the score is free.
Is this a real prediction that I will make it as a footballer?
No, and be wary of anything that claims to be. It is an educational estimate based on player-development research. Selection depends on things no tool can measure, like opportunity, injuries and being seen by the right people. We keep every result honest, which is exactly why you can trust the parts we can measure.
How accurate is the Pro Potential Score?
It is calibrated to published research: the FA four-corner model, academy selection data, the relative age effect and maturation studies. Late developers are never penalised for their size, and the full methodology is open for anyone to read. It measures your development standing today, not your destiny.
How do you get scouted for football?
Play at the highest level you can reach, perform consistently in the games scouts actually watch - district and county trials, showcase tournaments and academy open days - and make yourself easy to find. The Pro Pathway Plan includes a step-by-step get-seen checklist and a copy-paste trial-request email you can send to academy recruitment teams.
Can parents take the test for their child?
Yes. Many assessments are filled in together by a parent and player. It works for ages 8 to 30, and the plan gives parents a realistic, pressure-free picture of the pathway with concrete ways to support development, from training structure to trials.
What do I get in the Pro Pathway Plan for £9.99?
A personalised plan you can act on this week: a 90-day focus built around your weakest corner, the physical benchmarks for your age group, your position profile and what scouts look for in it, the realistic route for your age and level, and exactly how to get in front of scouts. One-off payment, instant access, yours to keep.
What does the Progress Tracker cost?
The Progress Tracker is £2.99 a month, cancel anytime. It charts your Pro Potential Score across unlimited reassessments and reminds you to retest, so you can see yourself improving month by month.
