This is what it takes to become a professional video scout

Have you ever considered what it takes to become a professional video scout? How do scouting teams operate, and what strategies do they employ? How do scouts assess players, and how do they communicate their findings? Additionally, how can you use Wyscout effectively to evaluate players and report your observations clearly and effectively?

In the past year, we have worked and spoken extensively with professional football clubs worldwide, giving us an even deeper understanding of scouts' roles and responsibilities. Based on these insights, we created a new on-demand course, Video Scouting Essentials.

The program includes 10 online, on-demand lectures featuring instructional videos, making it the perfect introduction for beginners in football scouting. We are not just sharing theory; we are providing the real strategies used by top professionals so you can apply this knowledge to increase your chances of becoming a football video scout. 

On our website, our founder and tutor of the course, Marco van der Heide, briefly explains what we cover in the course.
