<strong>AFL</strong> Recruiting Reports<br />
Another major element of the recruiting process is the confidential recruiting reports which are developed throughout the<br />
year by the <strong>AFL</strong> from information provided by state leagues on prospective players and made available to <strong>AFL</strong> clubs.<br />
Fourteen key performance areas are rated by clubs twice per year on a scale from 1 up to 5. There are also sections for<br />
current strengths and weaknesses, injuries for the year and general comments.<br />
Descriptors for each scale in each key performance area are provided to assist the club coach with this judgment.<br />
The key performance areas are:<br />
1. Kicking ability<br />
2. Marking ability<br />
3. Hand passing, Vision, Awareness<br />
4. Clean hands<br />
5. Ball-winning ability<br />
6. Pace<br />
7. Endurance<br />
8. Recovery and Agility<br />
9. Durability<br />
10. Leadership and Self-discipline<br />
11. Aggressiveness, Intensity and Second efforts<br />
12. Football character<br />
13. Competitiveness<br />
14. Football smarts<br />
The scales for making judgments, which will have a descriptor added, specific to the key performance area, are:<br />
