Performance ProfilingPerformance Profiling is a list of desired attributes and characteristics about the player. It's
also a way of giving an athlete information about their performance. It analyzes physical,
technicai, tactical, physiological, and psychological factors.
There’s many benefits of Performance Profiling such as:
● It helps identify an appropriate training programme

● Repeat the profiling to monitor athletes progress
