SayPro Feedback Template: A standardized template for coaches to provide constructive feedback

SayPro Feedback Template

This SayPro Feedback Template is designed to provide coaches with a standardized framework to deliver constructive, actionable feedback to players. It helps assess a player’s strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement, while also offering clear guidance for future development. Coaches can use this template after each session, week, or tournament simulation to ensure continuous growth and alignment with the camp’s goals.

Player Information

Performance Summary

Strengths:

• Gameplay Mechanics:
  (E.g., “Excellent aim, precision in shooting, fast reaction time.”)
• Team Coordination:
  (E.g., “Strong communication with teammates, calls out positions and enemy locations effectively.”)
• Role Execution:
  (E.g., “Plays their role well, consistent in fulfilling assigned tasks during team fights.”)
• Decision-Making:
  (E.g., “Great decision-making during mid and late game, able to adapt to changing scenarios.”)
• Pressure Management:
  (E.g., “Stays calm and focused in high-pressure situations, handles stress well.”)
• Mental Resilience:
  (E.g., “Doesn’t get discouraged by losses, maintains a positive attitude throughout the session.”)

Weaknesses:

• Gameplay Mechanics:
  (E.g., “Needs improvement on aiming accuracy, especially under pressure.”)
• Game Knowledge:
  (E.g., “Lacks map awareness, occasionally misses key objectives or positioning cues.”)
• Team Coordination:
  (E.g., “Struggles with communication in high-pressure situations, tends to go solo.”)
• Role Execution:
  (E.g., “Does not fully understand the role responsibilities during team fights.”)
• Decision-Making:
  (E.g., “Makes quick decisions without fully assessing the situation, leading to unnecessary mistakes.”)
• Mental Resilience:
  (E.g., “Tends to get frustrated after mistakes, affecting focus and gameplay.”)

Improvement Areas & Actionable Feedback

Specific Improvement Areas:

1. (Area for Improvement 1)
   Example: “Improve map awareness to track enemy movements and objectives more effectively.”
2. (Area for Improvement 2)
   Example: “Work on team communication in high-pressure situations, focus on making clear calls.”
3. (Area for Improvement 3)
   Example: “Focus on improving decision-making during mid-game, especially in situations that require adaptation.”

Recommended Drills/Exercises for Improvement:

• Drill/Exercise 1:
  Example: “Practice with a focus on map awareness during solo matches, reviewing replays to identify missed opportunities.”
• Drill/Exercise 2:
  Example: “Work with teammates on communication drills, calling out specific actions and positions during practice games.”
• Drill/Exercise 3:
  Example: “Practice making quick decisions under pressure in simulated high-stakes situations.”

Mental Resilience Focus:

• Exercise 1:
  Example: “Focus on staying calm after mistakes. Use relaxation techniques like deep breathing or visualization to refocus.”
• Exercise 2:
  Example: “Set small, achievable goals in each match to maintain motivation, especially when underperforming.”

Progress & Goals for the Next Week

Progress Since Last Session/Week:

• What’s Improved:
  (E.g., “Showed great improvement in team coordination during mid-game.”)
• What Needs Continued Focus:
  (E.g., “Decision-making under pressure needs more work, still rushing some key actions.”)

Goals for the Next Week/Session:

• Goal 1:
  (E.g., “Improve map awareness through solo sessions, practice focusing on minimap and enemy positions.”)
• Goal 2:
  (E.g., “Work on team communication during practice sessions, focus on making clear calls.”)
• Goal 3:
  (E.g., “Control emotional reactions during mistakes, focus on improving mental resilience during games.”)

Additional Notes

• Behavioral Notes:
  (E.g., “Consistently shows positive attitude, but needs to work on staying calm after mistakes.”)
• Player Feedback (optional):
  (E.g., “Player mentioned they are feeling more comfortable in their role, but they are struggling with late-game decision-making.”)

Coach’s Overall Rating for the Week/Session (Optional)

Final Thoughts/Comments:

• Coach’s Final Remarks:
  (E.g., “Keep up the great work, and don’t get discouraged by mistakes. Focus on improving communication and map awareness.”)

This SayPro Feedback Template helps coaches provide constructive, clear, and actionable feedback that can guide players through their development. It focuses on specific areas of improvement with practical drills and provides an ongoing assessment of player growth over time.
