There are hundreds of books about football scouting and recruitment.
(Here are the 6 you actually need to read)
I've read dozens of books on football analysis and talent identification.
Most focus on theory, these deliver real value to aspiring and new scouts.

A very good two days spent @SpursOfficial delivering @FA national certificate in scouting and recruitment, discussing challenges to effective talent ID, performance and potential, reporting skills, live game observation. Some excellent staff developing the recruitment program.
A new challenge awaits.
A great opportunity to work with world class players and good people in a culture of unity, with leadership driven by people first values. I’m very excited to see what we can achieve together!!
Time to get to get to work @CANWNT
A great course with great people. Lots of learning across the realm of #talentid#recruitment some superb conversations with knowledgeable staff across multiple disciplines. @FA@WBATalentID

“That’s the way we’ve always done it” is not a justification. It’s a lazy excuse for failing to evolve.
Blind faith in traditions makes us prisoners of the past. Routines should be based on present value and future potential.
A key to new growth is questioning old habits.
