Scoring System for Conditioning and Wellness Assessment in Athletic Population

Athletic performance is multifaceted, and it is affected by a wide range of factors. Athletes and coaches are interested in collecting as much data as possible to provide insight into performance and training effectiveness. However, it can be difficult for athletes to identify a relationship between these factors and their performance, and even more difficult for a coach who may be responsible for monitoring dozens of metrics in dozens of athletes. Here we outline an approach for condensing a range of wellness factors into a single score, as well as a method for condensing jump height consistency and improvement into a separate performance score. These scoring systems allow for wellness and performance to be evaluated at a glance, allowing for early intervention to reduce injury, an understanding of performance, and effective training.
