IHF

Tactics, data, formations, statistics – sports all over the world have so much to analyse it can be hard to know where to start and what to use.

I am a coach too, so I know what it means to be fresh and rested. While everyone is resting, I am working, but that is the way it should be; my team should not be worried about not having the information ready, and our coaches should rest and recover too. He always has a solution for everything, and I really like how he manages the team. But I am a servant of the coach and the US men's coach here, Robert Hedin. For example, on a day off earlier this week, I was working on downloading Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Uruguay. Meaningful information is normally presented to Robert and the athletes during half-time. This is the time to do it. This means the coach can have it before the video session of the day (often twice a day). Information has to be quick, succinct and meaningful. I also use Nacsport for real-time analysis to be sent to the bench. In the world of modern sport, analysts are people who are students of the game, coaches and assistant coaches themselves. I use Dartfish for positional analysis and XPS for quick, less detailed information.
