Drawing comparisons with clubs similar to yours is often a good way to identify areas of improvement. With the Custom Benchmark tool, you can create a benchmark consisting of clubs handpicked by you.
This feature is sold as a stand-alone product.

Anonymity
We have removed the ranking graph on custom benchmarks to ensure that clubs can not single out results from other clubs.
Our anonymity rules dictate that a benchmark must have at least results from three clubs before it will be visible. This is also the reason why you must select a minimum of three clubs when creating a custom benchmark, as a benchmark of two clubs will never show up.
