# Compare soccer program options from confirmed facts
More time on the field. Less time in the office.

Audience: players and families
Status: downloadable comparison guide with optional AI wording help.
Not a live pathway recommender, eligibility decision or promise of selection.

## Outcome and inputs
Outcome: a source-led fact sheet and questions for the organizer, coach and family.
Inputs: current organizer-approved program descriptions, season/cycle, source dates,
supplied criteria/commitment/location/application steps and your questions.
No AI account is required.

## Program fact sheet
| Item | Option A | Source/date | Option B | Source/date | Question still open |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Exact program name and season/cycle | | | | | |
| Type: training / assessment / other, if stated | | | | | |
| Published participation criteria | | | | | |
| Supplied commitment | | | | | |
| Supplied location | | | | | |
| Published application process | | | | | |
| Follow-on activity, only if confirmed | | | | | |
Use not confirmed for missing facts. Do not borrow details from an older season or another option.

## Five-step routine
1. Define exact programs and cycles. Similar names do not prove identical programs/pathways.
2. Capture only supplied facts and attach a source/date to each entry.
3. Separate published criteria from personal eligibility. AI must not infer age rules, ability
   level, selection likelihood or eligibility from titles. Ask authorized organizers about ambiguity.
4. Compare confirmed differences and turn gaps into questions, not rankings.
   An unspecified commitment does not prove a schedule will fit.
5. Review with coach and family; verify organizer responses and date the updated fact sheet.
   Contacting, registration and document submission are separate actions, not done by this sheet.

## Fictional example
DEMO-A confirms a six-week training block in its current description.
DEMO-B describes an assessment event; follow-on training is not confirmed.
Question: What, if any, training follows the assessment and where is that described?
Do not assume DEMO-B includes the same block or judge either option's quality from these facts.
No conclusion about any player's eligibility or selection is supported.

## My priorities (preferences, not program facts)
- What I hope to learn:
- What I want to understand better:
- What my family needs clarified:
- What I want to discuss with my coach:
Keep these separate from the organizer's confirmed information.

## Optional prompt for an approved, age-appropriate assistant
Organize these supplied program descriptions into a factual comparison.
Keep exact program/cycle names and a source/date beside every fact.
Separate confirmed facts, personal preferences and unknowns. Turn gaps into organizer questions.
Do not invent criteria, decide eligibility, rank programs or predict selection/recruitment.
Do not contact anyone, register, submit documents or request children's personal data.
Descriptions/source dates: [paste approved public text]
My anonymous questions/priorities: [paste without personal identifiers]
Return: fact sheet | unknowns/conflicts | questions for coach/family/organizer.

## Privacy and review checkpoint
Use approved, age-appropriate tools under applicable parent/guardian guidance.
Do not paste birth dates, school/address details, player cards, private evaluations or medical
information. Personal eligibility questions belong with authorized organizers, not an AI tool.
