Every player in Kickabout has a certain performance level, representing his skill, relative to the other players in the league. This ranges from level 0 player (unqualified apprentices and schoolboys who are still learning their trade) to a level 12 player (a top-class player, almost at the top of the tree). It is possible to increase a player’s performance level beyond level 12 (see Star Players), but to do so they must be exceptional indeed. Your players’ performance levels determine how well they play in any match, not just the overall effect they might have throughout the ninety minutes. Many factors determine how well a side plays, and the skill of the individuals is only a part of it.
