Video Assessment vs In-Person Match Assessment: Which Should You Choose?

Comparing Stride USA's £75 video review and £150 in-person match assessment — what each shows and who each suits.

By Stride USA · 4 min read

Stride USA offers two ways to find out where you stand. Both deliver honest, professional advice — the difference is how we see you play.

Video assessment — £75

  • You send match footage or a highlight reel.
  • Our team reviews it against US college recruiting standards.
  • A 30-minute online evaluation talks you through the realistic level and next steps.
  • Ideal if you already have good full-match or extended footage.

In-person match assessment — £150

  • Our team watches you play in a real fixture anywhere in the UK.
  • You propose three possible fixtures with dates and venues.
  • We see off-the-ball work, communication and decision-making that clips often miss.
  • Ideal if you have limited footage or want the most complete picture.
Not sure which to pick? If your footage shows full matches clearly, start with video. If not, the in-person assessment gives coaches — and you — a far more reliable read.

Whichever route you choose, you finish with clarity: the divisions that fit, what to improve and what to do next.
