Receiving the Session Summary Report

Once you’ve synced your session, an immediate email arrives in your inbox. This email provides a comprehensive breakdown of the session’s data. Regardless of whether it was a coach-led session or an individual player’s session, all team members will receive this report.

At the outset of the report, you’ll spot:

Your team’s name
The date of the session
The session’s duration

Next we move into the meat of the report: the key metrics.

Section 1: Active Participation

Active Participation (AP) highlights the ratio of players’ active time vs. their inactive time, providing a participation percentage for the entire session. The data is further segmented into 10-minute blocks to provide coaches with a structured framework to trace and reflect upon the session’s progression from start to finish. This helps answer questions like – When was the team most active? Who stood out, and who lagged?

Section 2: Heart Rate

Understand the intensity of your team’s session by noting the time players spend in the Red Zone (over 80% of their max heart rate).Typically, any time over 30 minutes signifies a high-intensity session. Additional insights include the average beats per minute and a breakdown across the five heart rate training zones. As with the other metrics, the top and bottom performers in terms of heart rate are also spotlighted.

Section 3: Distance

As the name suggests, this metric accounts for the total distance covered by players, showcased both in meters and miles. Plus, get insights on the distance per minute and its further classification into speed zones like low (walking), medium (jogging), high (running), and max (sprinting). Performance data on the farthest and shortest distances covered by players is also available.

Section 5: Workload

A crucial metric, workload is a numerical representation of a player’s exertion during the session. A higher number implies a more strenuous workout. Critical aspects of this metric include the number of sprints – one of the most taxing activities a player can undertake – and a breakdown of the workload every ten minutes. This metric can give you an at-a-glance understanding of the session’s intensity.

Final Section: Player-specific Insights
