How verification builds trust
Every step ties an athlete to real organizations, real fixtures, and real people who stake their reputation on the data you see.
Profiles start here until ID, club roster, or match data is validated on SportConnect Talent.
What's required
Account created; minimal or no corroborating data yet.
What it unlocks
Directory listing only if visibility allows; low scout ranking weight.

We found two strikers from Lubumbashi we'd never have discovered otherwise. SportConnect Talent is now part of our scouting workflow.
Finally a platform where I control who can contact my son. Verification gives me real peace of mind.
Trust scores cut through the noise. I waste about 70% less time on bad leads.
Trust by design
Every data point traces back to a real person, a real organization, and a real match, not a form field.
Athletes are verified through official club rosters submitted by verified coaches, not by self-report alone.
Every stat flows from a verified match sheet. Coaches submit, referees confirm. No standalone stat claims.
All under-18 contact requests route through guardian approval. Consent is built in from the start.
Partnership signals from national and regional federations provide the strongest cross-border trust layer.
Role-by-role
Practical next steps for every role on the platform.
From profile to discovery
Four steps from signup to verified discovery, across any sport and any position.
Athletes showcase sport, stats, and video with clear visibility rules. Guardians control what scouts see for under-18s.
Verified fixtures and roster links strengthen trust. Stats from verified matches carry far more weight than self-reported data.
Search, trust-level filters, and ranked surfaces put the right players in front of the right scouts faster.
Under-18 messaging stays gated until a guardian approves. Every contact request leaves an auditable trail.
