Abstract: Methods and systems are described for an athlete rating system. A method for rating an athlete includes data collected from a variety of sources. The collected data includes information on attributes and skills associated with the athlete. Users of the rating system are able to view and rate an athlete by sport. Athletes can use the rating system to upload media content for viewing by users. The rating system enables athletes to scout potential competitors, teammates before viewing them play. Additionally, the rating system enables users to rate an athlete after playing with or viewing the athlete in a sporting event.
