Digitizing Coaching Intelligence: An Agentic Framework for Holistic Athlete Profiling using VLM and RAG

Athlete assessment is a critical process for tracking physical progress and identifying elite talent. However, during mass recruitment drives, traditional methods rely on manual observation, which is inherently subjective and unscalable, or basic computer vision (CV) systems limited to quantitative repetition counting. These standard approaches lack the "coaching intelligence" required to evaluate qualitative physiological markers such as form degradation, spinal articulation, and fatigue. This paper presents a novel, LLM-based hybrid agentic framework for automated, holistic athlete profiling that strictly aligns with the Sports Authority of India (SAI) assessment protocols. Orchestrated via LangGraph, our dual-pipeline architecture synthesizes the geometric precision of CV (MediaPipe) for kinematic tracking with the semantic reasoning of Vision-Language Models (Llama-4-scout). To overcome the latency and token constraints associated with multimodal video processing, we introduce a 3 X 3 "Smart Grid" temporal chunking strategy, reducing computational overhead by over 88% while preserving critical temporal continuity. To ensure data integrity and mitigate hallucination, the framework pioneers an autonomous "LLM-as-a-Judge" self-correction loop that cross-references quantitative and qualitative metrics before persistence. Finally, we implement a dual-persistence Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline utilizing a vector search engine (ChromaDB). This enables coaches to bypass rigid SQL databases and perform complex semantic queries (e.g., "Identify athletes with high endurance but poor core rigidity") using natural language. Experimental results demonstrate that this multi-agent approach significantly bridges the gap between raw biometric tracking and actionable coaching insights, offering a scalable, objective solution for national talent identification.
