Compare
Rank players, compare two side by side, or compare your teams against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.

Badminton scorecard: common questions
What skills does the Badminton scorecard include?
SkillScorer's Badminton scorecard covers 12 skills: Grip and Racquet Control, Serve and Serve Return, Clears and Drops, Smashing, Net Play, Footwork, Backhand Strokes, Defence and Drives, Doubles Rotation, Shot Selection, Stamina and Speed and Match Mentality. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are players scored in Badminton?
Every player is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one team and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Badminton?
Badminton starts with these levels (called “Age Group” in the app): Boys Junior, Girls Junior, Men's Amateur, Women's Amateur, Men's Senior and Women's Senior. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Badminton skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In sports the app talks about players, teams and coachs, and you can change any of those words too.
