What is Head Coach Plus Pitch?

When a Trusted Agent represents a priority Head Coach in their TransferRoom portfolio, they are able to Plus Pitch their client to any club in the TransferRoom network. 

However, part of the challenge for agents to find their Head Coach client their next club is that they often don't know where to start. It's hard to find out if clubs are looking for a new Head Coach.  

During Plus Pitch, agent's can benefit from being recommended 20 clubs that are both suitable for their Head Coach client and could be looking for a new face in the dugout soon. 

Read on to find out how we determine which 20 clubs we recommend. 

How do we calculate our club recommendations?

There are a few factors we consider when calculating which clubs to recommend for Head Coach Plus Pitch. 

Is the Head Coach suitable to the club? 

Using our Head Coach Suitability score, we can recommend to an agent the clubs that are most suitable to their client. Read more here about how we calculate the Head Coach Suitability score. 

Can the club afford the Head Coach's salary? 

We can compare the salary an agent inputs when Plus Pitching their Head Coach with data to suggest the Head Coach salaries that a club has previously paid. That way we can suggest clubs that can afford the salary that an agent's Head Coach is looking for. 

Could the club need a new Head Coach? 

We take into account various circumstances that often indicate a club will soon be looking for a new Head Coach. These include: 

• If a Head Coach's contract is expiring
• If a Head Coach is underperforming
• If a Head Coach is over performing and could be poached
• If a club has shown interest in a Head Coach on TransferRoom 

Does the Head Coach pass GBE? 

For UK clubs, we take into account whether a Head Coach would pass their GBE status.
