Assessment

The National Assessment, which was developed by iSoccer, is a test that measures an individual player's overall technical ability. The assessment covers 7 topic areas and consists of 16 exercises selected to measure the fundamental skills needed to become a complete player. The test is easy enough for a five-year old, yet challenging enough for an elite player.
