A side project I’ve been doing this year.
Started making a football analysis tool, I coach an U16’s team. Have a few coaching badges and I’m going to age out of coaching when my team turns 18. Probably giving me back 12-15 hours per week.
So I’ve been trying to capture some of the knowledge I picked up and crystallise it in a little web app. I have 2 long train journeys per fortnight and have been working on it then.
It uses a weighted Voronoi diagram and player traits to determine spatial control of the field.
A few years ago I spoke quite a bit with Bill Spearman who is the chief data scientist at Liverpool FC. They do some amazing stuff behind the scenes but it’s such a competitive advantage it’s secretive and doesn’t really benefit the grassroots, and it’s invisible to lot of fans.
I have a decent development plan that will probably take me well into next year. But I’m going to build a nostr forum into it.
Mission is to build a tactical aid for fans and grassroots coaches when watching games.
I’m developing it in public at

It’s pretty raw, but has spatial control, player orientation, reaction, speed, physicality, offside, time on the ball… I’m going to build in xG control, ball physics, pass value, a game clock, formations, phases of play, fatigue, player and team database, chat forums and maybe one day an exchange (or maybe not).
