Pro Hop Scout

A Japanese-football-fan companion that turns the Interhigh and high-school cups into a year-round prospect tracker, so you can spot the next J1 star before he signs.

Target user

Japanese football supporters who follow youth prospects from high school into the J-League

Features
  • Bracket with Star Power: every Interhigh / 選手権 game annotated with prospect cards for the players in it, plus highlight clips.
  • Path-to-J1 Timeline: follow a player's journey from high-school standout to J1 contract, with key stats and milestones.
  • Watch List & Alerts: save prospects and get push notifications when they score, get called up to age-group national teams, or sign with a club.
  • Past-Class Replay: see where last year's Interhigh stars ended up — pro deals, university soccer, or transfers abroad.
Why now

The 2026 Interhigh just kicked off in Fukushima with multiple J1-confirmed 3rd-years (including 清水エスパルス-bound Ōzora Seina) — fans want prospect intel the J-League's official sites don't provide.

Demand
7/10

Multiple major Japanese soccer outlets (Gekisaka/Yahoo Sports/Sportiva) publish dedicated scouting-style '注目選手' lists for both the インハイ and 選手権, confirming sustained seasonal interest.ユース取材ライター陣が推薦する「インターハイ注目の11傑+隠れた逸材3傑」第104回高校サッカー選手権特集 - 選手ランキング - スポーツナビ

Whitespace
7/10

No dedicated year-round prospect tracker app exists; JPick covers J1/J2/J3 data only, while 高校 prospect content is fragmented across separate per-tournament blog articles — a unified tracker is genuinely missing.JPick — Advanced J-League Stats, Analytics & Predictions App高校・大学サッカーファンページ | 高校サッカー・大学サッカーに特化した情報まとめサイト

Monetization
4/10

High-school prospect content is heavily served for free by blogs and major outlets; JPick proves a paid J-League data app exists but high-school niche willingness to pay is unproven and content is commoditized.JPick — Advanced J-League Stats, Analytics & Predictions App

Longevity
7/10

Built-in year-round pipeline: インハイ (July/Aug, now fixed in Fukushima) → プレミアリーグ/高校リーグ → 選手権 (Dec/Jan) → プロ内定発表 creates recurring demand cycles tied to the Japanese school calendar.2026インターハイ高校サッカー!優勝候補・得点王・プロ内定・注目選手

Feasibility
7/10

All required data (tournament brackets, player profiles, pro announcements) is publicly published by Gekisaka/学校体育協会; aggregating into a tracker is straightforward but requires ongoing manual curation across many tournaments.ユース取材ライター陣が推薦する「インターハイ注目の11傑+隠れた逸材3傑」
