Agile Sports Analytics – Where Agile Management and Sports Come Together

At the end of each Sprint, the team looks at the performance goals reached & adds up the number of value points associated w those achieved metrics. The total number of value points gained is the team’s velocity, or production, for that Sprint. After the first few Sprints, the Analyst will start to see a trend & will be able to calculate the average velocity. The value point system will allow players to track progress with a single number, & it encourages them to aim for more key metrics in an effort to accumulate value points in the Sprint & gain velocity. Players see their value based on points accumulated by hitting performance targets rather than scoring points. The average velocity is the total number of value points gained, divided by the total number of Sprints completed. For example, if the team’s velocity was… Sprint 1 = 120 value points Sprint 2 = 125 value points Sprint 3 = 170 value points Sprint 4 = 135 value points the total value is 550. Average velocity is 137.5
