You've probably heard the stories of the football coach that spends hours and hours each week watching film, sleeping in his office, and obsessively preparing for any possible contingency each week. There's no question that football coaches spend a crazy amount of time each week preparing for their games.
Be The Coach (BtC) is designed to allow you to spend as much (or as little) time as you like preparing each week as well. Coaches watch film and scour scouting reports looking for tendencies that they can confidently anticipate and for weaknesses in their opponent that they can exploit on game day. BtC leverages technologies patented and developed by RII Sports Technology to provide you with insight into scouting information for this week's games. This same technology is used by numerous NCAA and professional football programs across the country - including LSU, the University of Arizona, SMU, Yale, Dartmouth and others.
Building a Call Sheet
All of the time spent watching file and examining scouting reports each week culminates in the creation of a coach's Call Sheet. You've probably noticed them - those large, laminated sheets that coaches seem to always have in their hands. Call Sheets are exactly as the name implies - they show all of the different situations that might arise in a game, and the various offensive or defensive play calls that the coach wants to use in that situation. BtC is structured around Call Sheets. Each week as a live game is unfolding you'll be faced with a unique game situation. You'll need to make a call based on that unique game situation, in the same way a real NFL coach does. In his case he'll refer to his Call Sheet where he can draw on all of the study he's done over the past week to make a call that is a good fit for that situation. With BtC you can do the same thing.
We provide you with a Call Sheet template that can be accessed and downloaded from the BtC Play Screen. The BtC Call Sheet shows the various situational categories that are used. We also provide you with two additional scouting tools to help with your preparation - Scan Reports and Dashboards (see below). Using these tools you'll have the opportunity to create your own Call Sheet that you can reference as you engage with this weeks game.
Exploring Tendencies
Coaches spent an enormous amount of time each week looking for tendencies in their opponent. It's fairly obvious why, if they can identify situations where they can be highly certain of what a team is going to do then they can plan accordingly to counter them. When those situations arise in a game, they'll be able to effectively stop their opponent. The more often they are able to do this the more likely they are to win. As you prepare to engage with games each week you'll have access to similar information through a GameBreak Scan report.
This interactive report allows you to identify all of a teams tendencies wherever they exist. Dial in any situation and you'll have instant access to any tendency that this team exhibits.
Team Dashboards
Another of the technologies you'll have access to each week are Scouting Dashboards. These visual, interactive displays provide you with the complete story on a team - what they like to do in a given situation, where they are strong, where they have weaknesses. Studies show that 65% of all people are Visual Learners (simply put, they gain more knowledge from images and graphics than they do from reading text or tables of information). GameBreak Scouting Dashboards present scouting data in a Visual, Interactive platform that helps your team more quickly recognize and more effectively memorize a team's tendencies, strengths and weaknesses. These Dashboards will give you the insight you need to make the best possible play call for every situation you'll face in this week's game. The dashboard can provide you with a roadmap for how to defeat an opponent.
Dashboards use the dimensions of size and color to tell a story. The size of a box indicates the relative strength of the tendency - the bigger the box, the stronger the tendency. The color of an item indicates Offensive performance on a gradient scale from Red (very poor, inefficient offensive performance) to Blue (excellent, highly efficient offensive performance).
By simply interacting with your dashboard during the week you'll be able to begin building a game plan for how to best attack your opponent. Access your dashboard by clicking on the link found on the BtC's Play Screen - you'll be able to view the dashboard on your device or download it for study on your computer.
