Description

Athlete Scouting Service Device {ATHLETE SCOUTING SERVICE DEVICE}

The present invention relates to athlete scouting service technology, and more specifically, to an athlete scouting service device that can guarantee athlete-related information to a scouting company by performing necessary testing and verification for each athlete's sport.

Exercise is recognized as a healthy and recommended field for maintaining physical health, hobbies, and forming social skills such as participating in various clubs, so it is sometimes chosen for the purpose of engaging in daily sports activities, but there are also cases where it is chosen as a career or career.

As for professional athletes, it is rare for those who have excelled in daily sports to become professional athletes, and most of them are athletes who have been trained professionally since their youth. Athletes are scouted through sports agencies or scouts, and recently, recruiting players regardless of their country of origin has become more active. However, from a scout's perspective, it is not easy to specifically understand a player's capabilities.

On the other hand, in the case of ordinary people who quit sports midway due to personal reasons or have excellent discretion in a specific sports event, it is difficult to get the opportunity to work as an active athlete.

Therefore, there was a need for technology that could verify the competency of active or prospective athletes according to their sport and provide it to scouts.
