Tryouts
Fair. Fast.
Stress-free.
SportX1 Tryouts gives you a structured evaluation framework so every coach scores consistently, every player gets a fair look, and your final selections are backed by real data — not just gut feel.
How it works
From setup to selections in four steps
Less admin before. More confidence after. Every player gets a fair evaluation and every coach is aligned.
Set up your tryout
Define your evaluation criteria, rating scales, and the positions you're recruiting for. Takes under 5 minutes and you're ready to go.
Register candidates
Share a tryout link. Players self-register with their details, experience, and position preferences — saving your staff hours of admin.
Evaluate on the day
Coaches score players in real time on the app. Multiple evaluators work simultaneously and scores are averaged automatically — removing bias.
Select your squad
Sort and filter results by score, position, or custom criteria. Make final selections with confidence, backed by consistent data.

FAQ
Common questions
Can I run tryouts across multiple sessions?+
Yes. You can run a multi-day or multi-session tryout and aggregate scores across all sessions for a final ranking. Great for large intake cohorts.
Do players need a SportX1 account to register?+
No. Players register through a public link and don't need an existing SportX1 account. The barrier to entry is as low as possible.
Can coaches score without internet access?+
Scores are saved locally on the device and sync automatically when connectivity is restored. Limited signal on a pitch isn't a problem.
Can I customize what information players submit?+
Yes. You control the registration form — add position preferences, previous experience, medical information, and any custom fields your process requires.
How do I notify candidates of the outcome?+
Send acceptance and decline emails directly from SportX1 using customizable message templates. Every candidate gets a clear, timely communication.
