Visual Data Presentation
STATUS: DRAFT
Numbers without context are meaningless. Heat maps without explanation waste time.
Your analysis must tell a story your players understand immediately.
Pitch Diagrams That Work
- Use your team colours
- Show maximum 5 movements per diagram
- Number the sequence clearly
- Add simple arrows for direction
- Include player names, not just positions
Heat Map Interpretation
Don’t just show where players were. Explain what it means:
- “Your heat map shows you never got into the box”
- “Look how much space you left between midfield and defence”
- “See how narrow we became in the final third”
Video Clip Compilation Rules
- Maximum 3 clips per coaching point
- Each clip under 30 seconds
- Clear audio commentary
- Slow motion only for technical details
- Always finish with full-speed replay
