Top 25 Girls Academy and ECNL Goalkeepers in the InStat Index: Fall 2020
With many ECNL and Girls Academy clubs across the country utilizing analytics platforms like InStat Sport, college coaches and scouts now have access to more game film and data than ever before.
This season, InStat is providing data for all Girls Academy clubs and many ECNL clubs, on a platform that is used universally by NCAA Division I women’s soccer programs.
InStat’s signature metric is the InStat Index, an algorithm which is regarded as the most accurate assessment of any player’s performance. The InStat Index measures each player’s contribution to the team’s success, the significance of their actions, opponent’s level and the level of the league they play in.
After recently sharing the Top 50 ECNL players and Top 50 Girls Academy players according to the InStat Index from the fall season, SoccerWire has compiled a list of the 25 highest-rated goalkeepers between the two leagues.
