About
Detailed Presentation
This course teaches you how to set up a realistic, structured video analysis system that the technical staff can put straight to use. The aim is to turn footage from a match or training session into tactical decisions, individual development plans and measurable actions on the pitch. It covers the entire analysis process: framing the question, capturing video, coding actions, building indicators, team and individual analysis, opposition scouting, feedback to players and translating conclusions into training. The course also shows how to organise an analysis unit that fits the resources available — even with a single camera or basic tools — while ensuring reliable observations, secure footage and continuity of the system.
Overview
What this course covers
Video analysis and performance assessment in football is an online UpSkills course in Sports Management, organised into 6 modules, 27 lessons and 3h 54m of content. Each sequence pairs theory with hands-on practice so that what you learn transfers directly to a real professional setting.
By the end of this programme you will be able to frame a video analysis around a specific question from the coaching staff and link every observation to a tactical or training decision. These skills are built up gradually across the course, consolidating the fundamentals before moving on to more advanced material.
The learning path opens with “Course introduction and contents” and closes with “Quiz”, taking in “Section 1 - Framing the analysis and producing usable video”, “Section 2 - Coding actions and building reliable indicators” and “Section 3 - Turning analysis into a game plan and player feedback” along the way. The sequence is designed so each module builds on the one before it.
This course is aimed at learners at intermediate level looking to build their skills in Sports Management. It suits both individual upskilling and a company-led development plan, and needs no special software or equipment to follow.
The programme is led by L'équipe d'experts Up Skills; you learn at your own pace, with no fixed schedule, from desktop, tablet or mobile; an UpSkills certificate is issued once you complete the course.
What you'll learn
Key Objectives
Frame a video analysis around a specific question from the coaching staff and link every observation to a tactical or training decision.
Produce usable footage even with limited resources, by choosing the right angle, a tactical frame that is wide enough and a reliable system for organising files.
Build a coding framework and indicators aligned with the playing model, in order to identify the behaviours that really matter for performance.
Analyse team and individual performance by distinguishing facts, causes, context, positional responsibilities and genuinely observable behaviours.
Analyse an opponent and turn your observations into a match plan, covering strengths, vulnerabilities, triggers and instructions that can be worked on directly in training.
Turn video analysis into training priorities and clear feedback for players, then reassess those behaviours in subsequent sessions and matches.
Set up a sustainable analysis system suited to your club's resources, with defined roles, a regular workflow, shared standards, secure storage and continuity even when an analyst or a tool is unavailable.
