As player/athlete monitoring becomes more popular and “must-do” it’s worth bearing in mind that the quantity/quality conversation needs to happen. Seth Godin’s latest blog post is a timely reminder to everyone involved in analysis and monitoring on a daily basis that we need to do the “heavy-lifting” of identifying what is significant in terms of what we want to measure….if effect what are the “big-rocks” and key indicators for your team/players. It’s time well spent….the alternative is to try to measure everything – including a lot of the meaningless noise leading to assumptions. Players & athletes deserve better.
