The selection of the right soccer players is very important to determine the optimal strategy and match results. However, the selection process, which is still carried out manually, often causes mismatches between the players’ abilities and the standards expected by the coach. To overcome this problem, a system is needed that can provide player recommendations objectively and efficiently. This study aims to develop a decision support system for selecting the best players at the Pelita Jaya Sawangan Academy using the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method. This method was chosen because it can handle multi-criteria decision-making systematically and logically. The system was developed to assess player performance based on several criteria such as goals, assists, yellow cards, red cards, saves, and penalty saves. The final result of this study is a ranking of players based on the highest preference value, which helps coaches determine the best players objectively, accurately, and based on data.
