A Presentation on Performance Analysis By.....

Mark ForrestPerformance Analyst

“Performance Analysis is a key functional tool for providing the coach

with information about a team and/or individual performance. The

feedback then made available to the players can be relevant, accurate and

objective rather than unreliable and subjective”

Ian Franks, 1996

Essentially Performance Analysis is about creating

a valid and reliable record of performance by

means of systematic observations that can be

analysed with a view to facilitating change.
