What is Performance Analysis?

09 July 2009

Performance Analysis

Coaches and Athletes spend a great deal of time thinking about how you can improve, or try to understand the elements that make up a good performance. Many coaches rely on what they observe in real-time to inform their coaching decisions. Research shows that coaches can, on average, recollect around 40% of key performance factors that they had actually seen. In terms of the coaching process, if the observation of performance is limited then the rest of the process is then in question. That's why Performance Analysis can be extremely beneficial.

Performance Analysis provides the coach and athlete with objective information that can assist with the understanding of performance, and improve the coaching process by providing statistical and video information. This process is underpinned by systematic observation, which provides valid, reliable and detailed information relating to performance.

At SINI the main objective of the performance analysis team is to provide coaches and athletes with objective data that facilitates enhanced feedback. Subsequent interventions can then lead to a greater performance impact. We work closely with coaches, athletes and other members of the support team to ensure that analysis is effectively integrated into athlete development programmes.
