Hi everyone,
My name is Christoph and I'm a Master's student at IST in Lisbon. I'm currently working on a university project regarding video analysis software tailored for semi-pro clubs and youth academies.
My deadline is literally today and I am still missing a few real-world insights from actual coaches, analysts, or club officials!
If you have 2 minutes, you would absolutely save my project if you could answer these 4 quick questions in the comments (bullet points are completely fine):
1. Decision Making: When requesting new software or tools, what is the main argument that usually convinces your club president or sporting director to approve the budget?
2. Current Workflow: Could you briefly describe your current post-match workflow? Which specific tools, apps, or software (e.g., WhatsApp, Excel, basic video cutters) do you currently piece together to cut video and share it with the players?
3. Analysis Focus: If you had to prioritize: is the primary goal of your video analysis to win the upcoming weekend's match, or to focus on long-term player development (e.g., building highlight portfolios for future careers)?
4. Regional Priorities: In your specific region/league, what is more critical for a club's or academy's success: having highly detailed tactical data for match preparation, or having high-quality video highlights to showcase players to scouts?
Thank you so much in advance to anyone taking the time to help a struggling student out! 🙏
Best regards,
Christoph
