As part of the Nexus application process, we ask families to submit a short trialist video of the player in action. This helps our coaches evaluate each player’s technical ability, decision-making, and overall fit for our program.
Please use the above Guidance Video to create your own Trialist Video.
Video Components
Please compile a single video (no longer than 3 minutes) that includes the following:
1) 30sec-1min of Freestyle Technique
Show off your individual ball control (jueguitos), such as juggling, footwork patterns, or other creative touches.
2) Passing and Receiving on the Move (Both Feet)
Demonstrate passing and control while moving, using both feet.
3) Finishing/Striking with Both Feet
Include clips of the player taking shots on goal with both the right and left foot.
4) Ball Control into Space
Toss the ball in the air and control it with one touch into space. Show this multiple times to demonstrate consistency.
5) 1v1 Play
A short segment showing attacking or defending in 1v1 scenarios—this can be from training or game footage.
Video Submission Instructions:
Email the video link in HD to [email protected]
Because email systems can’t handle very large video files, please do not send the raw video file directly. Instead, upload your video to a platform such as YouTube (unlisted), Google Drive, Dropbox, or another cloud service, and then share the link with us.
EMAIL Subject: [Player's full name] [Player birth year] Request for Invite
Body of email must include:
Attach: Player headshot (required)

Prefer to Film With Us?
If you'd rather not create the Trialist video on your own, you can book a Nexus Trialist private lesson with one of our coaches. During this 1-hour session, your player will receive a high-quality private lesson, and we will film all of the required video components as part of the evaluation process.
Cost: $125
You will not receive a copy of the video. It is strictly for internal evaluation purposes only. To schedule your trialist session, open the Mindbody app and search for Heart and Sole.
