Who sees what
Three roles.
Three different views.
Each role gets exactly what its job requires and nothing more. That restriction is deliberate — it is what makes the programme safe to run around minors.
Club coach
Head & assistant coachesDelivers the standard, session by session. The whole programme lives or dies here.
- Every athlete’s tier before the session — who to push, who to modify
- Prevention protocol handed over ready, matched to squad status
- Flags shared with the club's clinical contact, so the judgement is not theirs alone
- Their own compliance record — the basis of a real development conversation
Club manager
Operations · scheduling · player pathwayRuns the actual machine — pitches, fixtures, travel, registrations, the parent inbox — and owns whether athletes actually progress.
- Availability across every squad, for selection and fixture planning
- Load conflicts flagged before a tournament weekend is scheduled
- Protocol compliance across coaches, without chasing anyone
- Development interrupted by injury, quantified by squad and by coach
- Screening trends across age groups — where the pathway is producing risk
- A durability record to put in front of college programmes and recruiters
Club founder
Owner · directorCarries the brand, the commercials, and the phone call when something goes badly wrong.
- A defensible duty-of-care position — what was reported, told and done
- Retention and attrition set against injury history
- A standard of care that is concrete enough to market
- Programme health at a glance, without reading incident reports
Beyond the club staff
Two roles you do not employ.
Parents
FamilyThe people paying the fees, and currently the least informed party in the entire arrangement.
- Her week: training, recovery, and what the club is doing about risk
- Notification when something is escalated, and by whom
- No clinical detail, and never her private entries
Your clinical contact
Physio · AT · physicianMost clubs have a relationship rather than a member of staff. The programme makes that relationship functional.
- A prioritised queue of flagged athletes instead of ad-hoc phone calls
- Weeks of history before the first appointment
- Criterion-based return-to-play, documented back to the coach
The rule underneath all of it
The athlete is not the last to know.
She sees her own picture in full — including everything her coach sees. She is the only person who sees all of it. Nothing is recorded about her that she cannot read, and what she marks private stays private from every role above, including her parents.
Get this wrong and a club builds a surveillance system that athletes learn to lie to. Get it right and the data is honest — which is the only way any of it is worth having.
The access rules, laid out
Who sees what, exactly.
| Role | Tier | Training load | Clinical detail | Private entries | Club rollups |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Club coach | ● | ● | — | — | own squad |
| Club manager | rollup | rollup | de-identified | — | ● |
| Club founder | — | — | — | — | aggregate only |
| Parent | their athlete | their athlete | — | — | — |
| Clinical contact | ● | ● | ● | — | — |
| Athlete | ● | ● | ● | ● | — |
The athlete is the only role with a full ● row — that is deliberate, not an oversight.
Next step
See it against your own squads.
A fit call is scoping, not a demo script. Bring the age group you are most concerned about.
Better Athlete is a training-intelligence service, not a medical device. A read is a screening view of how training is landing — it does not diagnose, and it does not replace the judgement of your club's clinical contact or a physician.
