The document provides information about the iSoccer Assessment guide, which measures technical development of soccer players to help coaches. It can take 75-90 minutes to assess an entire team in one day or can be broken up over multiple days with additional coaches assisting. The guide outlines the layout of grids needed for assessments and lists the items needed. It then provides recommendations for introducing skills at different age levels, from casual counting to formal assessing and recording of scores to track player progress over time.
