How often should I test the countermovement jump?

Weekly or biweekly during the season works well for monitoring readiness and fatigue, with baselines set in the preseason. Consistency matters more than frequency: irregular testing produces data you cannot trust.

What should I compare the numbers to?

The athlete's own baseline. Compare this week to the athlete's own preseason baseline, not to a team average and not to a published norm from a different population.
