Ordered tasks (23) — this is what a project auto-creates

  • #1Data Quality, Reliability & ObjectivityMediumTo Do

    The integrity of the raw record — completeness, accuracy, consistency, temporal alignment, and freedom from observer bias — that everything downstream depends on.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 0 days after project start · takes 7 days

  • #2Player & Team AttributesLowTo Do

    Identifies what you actually measure at the source: the skills, physical traits, and tactical capabilities that drive everything downstream. It orients you to the raw inputs before they become performance numbers.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 7 days after project start · takes 3 days

  • #3In-Game Performance Metrics & Value-Over-ExpectedMediumTo Do

    Separates raw observed output from value-over-expected metrics that credit a player only for what they added beyond a context-adjusted baseline. It is where attributes and context combine into numbers you actually rank people on.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 10 days after project start · takes 7 days

  • #4Economic Resources & ConstraintsLowTo Do

    The organisation's financial and staffing capacity to fund performance analysis, and how those constraints shape what system and methods you can realistically build. It grounds ambition in budget reality.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 17 days after project start · takes 3 days

  • #5Analysis System & Method DesignHighTo Do

    Architect an analysis apparatus deliberately — the variables you track, the workflows and tools you choose, and how you capture and display data for a specific coaching context.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 20 days after project start · takes 14 days

  • #6Metric Stability & PredictivenessLowTo Do

    Tell whether a metric reflects durable, repeatable talent or just short-run noise — the property that makes a number worth projecting forward.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 34 days after project start · takes 3 days

  • #7Analyst Competence & Micropolitical LiteracyMediumTo Do

    The dual skill set the effective analyst needs: technical fluency in programming, modeling, and interpretation, plus the literacy to operate within workplace social-political realities.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 37 days after project start · takes 7 days

  • #8Situational / Game-State ContextMediumTo Do

    The game-state and environmental circumstances — score, opponent strength, fatigue, venue, weather — that shape outcomes independent of who the player is. It shows you what to control for before crediting or blaming an athlete.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 44 days after project start · takes 7 days

  • #9Information Validity, Relevance & Insight QualityHighTo Do

    Focus on about whether the metrics and models you produce actually represent something important, relevant, and actionable — not merely something calculable.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 51 days after project start · takes 14 days

  • #10Feedback & Communication QualityHighTo Do

    Address how analysis is delivered — clarity, timing, shared vocabulary, interactivity, and pedagogy — so that findings become shared understanding rather than ignored reports.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 65 days after project start · takes 14 days

  • #11Stakeholder Buy-in, Engagement & AdoptionHighTo Do

    Focus on about whether coaches, athletes, and decision-makers actually trust, value, and incorporate your analysis into their thinking — the hinge between producing insight and changing outcomes.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 79 days after project start · takes 14 days

  • #12Reflective & Analytic PracticeMediumTo Do

    Introduces the disciplined habit of questioning your own assumptions, testing received wisdom, and learning systematically from experience rather than accumulating it uncritically.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 93 days after project start · takes 7 days

  • #13Dynamic Coaching Knowledge & UnderstandingMediumTo Do

    Concerns the evolving body of tactical, scientific, pedagogical, and relational understanding — including recall of performance detail — that a coach draws on to make decisions.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 100 days after project start · takes 7 days

  • #14Human-Over-the-Loop Decision StanceLowTo Do

    The decision posture in which analytics is a supplemental input while the human retains final responsibility and integrates factors the data cannot capture.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 107 days after project start · takes 3 days

  • #15Decision-Making Quality & Support ValueMediumTo Do

    Address the quality of decisions by athletes, coaches, and executives, and the incremental benefit analytics delivers when it improves them. It shifts focus from producing numbers to whether those numbers change a choice for the better.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 110 days after project start · takes 7 days

  • #16Contextual, Relational & Micropolitical ConditionsHighTo Do

    Maps the social and political terrain — coaching philosophy, power dynamics, relationships, and cultural discourse — within which analysis is received and either adopted or dismissed.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 117 days after project start · takes 14 days

  • #17Organizational Analytic CapabilityMediumTo Do

    Address the organization's collective capacity to collect, process, model, and act on data across player evaluation, tactics, and business operations — the institutional machinery behind individual analysis.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 131 days after project start · takes 7 days

  • #18Athlete Empowerment & Self-RelianceLowTo Do

    The behavioural shift where athletes take ownership of their own development, decisions, and initiative. It matters because analytics can either build this self-reliance or quietly undermine it.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 138 days after project start · takes 3 days

  • #19Athlete/Team Performance Improvement & OutcomesHighTo Do

    This is the core outcome the whole model points toward: measurable improvement in athlete and team performance and results, partly attributable to analysis-supported feedback and decisions. It is where you prove analytics did anything at all.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 141 days after project start · takes 14 days

  • #20Coaching Effectiveness & DevelopmentMediumTo Do

    Address how well a coach develops athletes holistically within sport's messy social environment, and how analytic knowledge and athlete empowerment feed into it. It reframes 'effectiveness' beyond X's and O's.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 155 days after project start · takes 7 days

  • #21Franchise Value, Fan Attachment & EntertainmentLowTo Do

    The business end: franchise financial worth, revenue, fan emotional attachment, and entertainment value, and how competitive success and analytic capability feed it. It connects on-field work to the balance sheet.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 162 days after project start · takes 3 days

  • #22Analyst Career Development & SustainabilityLowTo Do

    Focus on about the analyst's own career: getting, keeping, and advancing in ethical, healthy employment, and how competence plus political literacy sustain it. It treats the practitioner as a system input worth preserving.

    Assignee: Unassigned · due 165 days after project start · takes 3 days

  • #23Social Inclusion in SportLowTo Do

    Address sport becoming more inclusive across gender, sexuality, ability, and race, driven by coaches' proactive agency. It situates analytics within a broader social responsibility rather than a purely competitive one.
