SMART11 METHOD

Develop players
individually

A three-level course for coaches. You learn to analyse players and turn your analysis into training and conversations.

Level 1 costs €1,799, or pay in 3 instalments with Klarna. Worth 7 KNVB licence points. In Dutch or English.

Coach explaining a game situation to players

Do you recognise this?

You know there is more in your players. Without a framework you give feedback on feel.

You say it, they nod

You see a mistake and say something. The next week your player does it again. You lack the language to name exactly what goes wrong.

Same player, same mistake

You explained, showed and corrected it. Nothing changes. You do not know if it is the player or your explanation.

You see it, they do not

You know what the player should do. Turning that into something every player understands and does is a craft of its own.

How Level 1 works

Duration: 2 to 4 months. You work in SmartCoach, which you use for free during the course.

Module 1: the method

What Game Actions are, how football roles work and how you analyse a player’s decisions and execution in SmartCoach.

Module 2: match themes

The best response in the situations with the most impact: build-up, 1v1, depth, crosses and long balls.

Module 3: from analysis to training

Mini-lessons per Game Action, drills per theme and players who learn to analyse themselves.

Working with players at the highest level teaches you one thing: the game must be simple and clear. Our system gives that clarity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Level 1 cost?

Level 1 costs a one-off €1,799. You can also pay in 3 instalments with Klarna, at no extra cost.

How long does a level take?

Each level takes 2 to 4 months, depending on your availability and ours.

Do I need SmartCoach?

Yes, for the assignments. You use SmartCoach for free during the course.

I already have video analysis experience. Is this for me?

Yes. Level 1 puts your knowledge in a new framework. Many experienced coaches see the game more sharply afterwards.

How is this different from other coaching courses?

Most courses are about team tactics. The Smart11 Method is about the individual player: how you analyse them, turn that into trainable behaviour and make their progress visible.
