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
https://fantactico.com
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).
