As coaches we look at practices and games as one in the same. There is an opportunity to measure statistics in practice to raise the competitive level. Measuring statistics in games helps us shape what we do, and how we do it in practice. Presenter Dave Smith will have video from different game situations as well as different analytics to evaluate games and practices.
