Head Coach – Cougars
The decision to use SkillShark with our National program has saved our Coaches and Evaluators weeks of data entry. SkillShark substantially contributes to the growth of each USSSA player with the collection of their metrics and performance data.
Courtney Ceo
USSSA National Program Director
We’ve evaluated approximately 1200 players this season. It was super simple and convenient. Data entry usually took us eight hours a day, for fifteen consecutive days. With the volume of athletes that we need to process in one event, SkillShark has probably saved me about 120 hours overall.

Frequently Asked Questions — Softball Evaluation Form
What is a softball evaluation form?

5 = Excellent
4 = Good
3 = Average
2 = Fair
1 = Poor
How are players assessed using an evaluation app as opposed to a form?
Evaluating volleyball players involves several steps to ensure a comprehensive assessment. During player assessments, evaluators follow these steps:
• Observation: Coaches and scouts observe players during tryouts, practices and games. • Data Collection: Evaluators may utilize video analysis to collect additional data that can be reviewed later by both the evaluator and the player. • Rating: Utilizing the evaluation forms, evaluators assign ratings to players based on their observations. These ratings quantify and compare players’ abilities within each category. • Feedback & Comments: Evaluators provide detailed feedback and comments for each category to highlight strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement. This feedback can be typed or spoken with the voice-to-text tool in our SkillShark software.

What are the benefits of using the SkillShark softball evaluation app?
SkillShark’s app offers real-time insights, secure cloud-based storage, video integration, and scalability for all levels of play. It enhances efficiency, reduces administrative tasks, and provides valuable data for player development.
How can I use an evaluation form to provide a softball report card?
With SkillShark, there is no legwork needed to transform the scores you collected on a softball evaluation form into a softball report card.
The process is as easy as 1-2-3:
1. Using SkillShark’s mobile evaluation app, score athletes at any event using your mobile phone or tablet.
2. Using the web app, scroll to “Individual Reports.” **The second scores are inputted at an event, athlete reports are instantly generated on the backend.
3. Review each Individual Report, generated for every athlete scored, and hit SEND! Note: You can send a softball report card via email to every athlete at once, or you can simply choose to send to select athletes at a time.
How does the SkillShark softball evaluation app compare to traditional softball evaluation spreadsheets?
While a spreadsheet is simple and can be used offline, it lacks real-time insights and consumes time with manual data entry.
SkillShark’s athlete evaluation app removes data entry, instantly generates reports (once scores are inputted), and provides granular player feedback.
As a result, accurate decisions can be made about what softball players to draft and what position is best suited to them.
How do softball tryout forms eliminate bias?
Softball tryout forms provide a standardized and consistent approach to evaluating players.
No matter the age, gender, or skill level of the team being evaluated, a softball tryout template provides evaluators with standardized criteria they need to be scoring athletes on. This leaves little to no room for thoughts and opinions to be brought into the mix.
