Focus on women's football - the SHFV works digitally and innovatively with coachbetter in coaching education and developing young talent

The perfect combination: Lots of experience and digital vision at SHFV

Since January 2021, Anouschka Bernhard has been responsible for talent scouting and talent promotion in the women's and girls' division of the SHFV, including all junior teams from U11 to U18. Her successes should be an additional motivation for the young coaches and players. Anouschka Bernhard has been a 47-time German International, and the list of her successes is long: European Champion and Vice World Champion in 1995, as well as all the titles that can be won at club level.

In addition to talent development, she also enriches coaching education with her qualities. In 2021, the first only women UEFA B license course took place with 22 participants. For Anouschka Bernhard it is important to integrate the most modern and digital tools into the education of coaches and the promotion of talent. In addition and with over 20 coaches in her team, internal communication and sharing prepared training sessions is extremely important toher.

The functions of coachbetter are very diverse, innovative, and super easy to use. It is precisely such tools that make our work easier as coaches and ensure the highest quality. It's amazing when I think back to my early days as a coach how advanced the tools are today. With coachbetter, I analyze and edit videos online with just a few clicks, it used to take me days for only a small sequence.

Optimal training session preparation through fast and digital exchange

Communication: All coaches and managers are digitally connected and can exchange ideas on sporting and administrative topics for all teams. Planned training sessions can be shared with coaching staff prior to the actual practice. On top, the sessions can be shared via the Player App with all players so that everyone can come prepared to practice.

Training planning: Prior to sharing the sessions internally, coaches can choose from over 300 individual training activities (ranging from technical to tactical focus areas), which are easily adaptable to the performance levels of any team. coachbetter also offers complete and pre-designed training packages with different focus areas to ensure high quality training and preparation, even under time pressure.

Team Administration & Player Profiles: The development of all players of all 5 teams can be traced, simple and transparent. For each player, an individual player profile is created, in which the performance data is tracked. Every player (or parents) has access via the Player App to his own profile, which enables efficient feedback culture and communication. On top, players can confirm or deny presence for training sessions and games, directly in the app to ensure proper planning.

Video Analysis: Through visualization, players understand much easier what they can’t see themselves. Videos can be uploaded, edited and tagged directly in the platform. Individual sequences of a game or training can be then analyzed and shared directly with the player’s individual profile in the App.

Data Analysis & Statistics: coachbetter provides an overview of all training units and games played for a transparent overview and robust data analysis; all is saved in the cloud, perfectly organized and accessible at any time from anywhere.
