Blackburn Rovers FC's performance analyst talks to Prozone about how the club benefit from DASHBOARD and PROFILE...
Prozone are continually evolving our analysis services and the ways in which they are delivered to our clubs. As part of that process we speak regularly to managers, coaches and performance analysts from around the world to capture insightful feedback to further direct our product strategy. Paul Brand is a performance analyst at Blackburn Rovers Football Club and this is what he had to say about Prozone’s DASHBOARD and PROFILE online products.
How do Blackburn use PROFILE and DASHBOARD?
At Blackburn, we use DASHBOARD to continually monitor our performances throughout the season against our averages and the Premier League averages. We also use it to look at information over a specific period of games. We haven’t used PROFILE a lot so far, but intend to use it for individual end of season analysis.
How involved is the manager in reviewing the data?
The manager looks at the graphs produced on a regular basis and will also ask the analysis department to analyse recent form using the software. The manager also uses the graphs in team meetings to aid the communication of certain topics to the players and staff.
What are the main benefits that you get from PROFILE?
PROFILE gives us a very quick overview of the players’ season over many different areas and allows us to produce graphs showing a player’s performance over a set period for the coaching staff and the players.
How do products like PROFILE and DASHBOARD help you in your role?
PROFILE and DASHBOARD significantly reduce the time it takes for us to produce graphs and display information that we would have normally used TREND for. We feel that the two products help us produce information in a tenth of the time whilst still looking very sleek and being very presentable.
