Report by skill

The "By Skill" report in VolleyStation Pro is designed to provide detailed insights into player performance based on specific volleyball skills, such as serving, reception, attack, blocking, and digging. This report allows coaches and analysts to break down data by individual skills and gain a deeper understanding of how players perform in each area.

Key Features of the "By Skill" Report

Skill-Specific Data: The report focuses on individual skills like serving, passing, attacking, and blocking, providing a clear view of player efficiency in each category.
Filtering Options: You can filter data by players, ball types, or skill types to see performance metrics tailored to your needs.
Split Data Display: The report shows both total data and filtered results for each selection, making it easier to compare player performance across different skills or conditions.
Improved Analysis: The "By Skill" report helps identify strengths and weaknesses in specific areas, enabling targeted improvements during training sessions.

In this scenario we choose two games of Poland and one player. But look how many filters are here.

You created your first By skill report:

Distribution by setter after positive reception from zone 1

The "Distribution by Setter" report in VolleyStation Pro provides a detailed analysis of how setters distribute the ball during matches, offering valuable insights for both pre-game preparation and in-game adjustments. This report is helpful in understanding setter tendencies and optimizing offensive strategies. In our case, we will create this report for reception from zone 1.

Detailed Ball Distribution:

The report shows where the setter directs the ball during the side-out phase.
It includes breakdowns by rotation, setter calls, and reception quality (e.g., perfect, good, medium).

Each court section displays

Black numbers: Total balls set to a specific zone.
Blue percentages: Percentage of balls sent to that zone.
Red percentages: Kill rates from attacks in that zone.
Purple percentages: Attack efficiency from that zone.

Practical Applications

Pre-Game Preparation: Understand opponent's setter tendencies to develop defensive strategies like targeted blocking or digging setups.
In-Game Adjustments: Use real-time data to adapt your team’s defense based on setter behavior during critical match phases.

The "Distribution by Setter" report is an essential tool for coaches and analysts seeking to optimize offensive efficiency and counter opposing setters effectively.

In bench mode, spreadsheets can pull live data from ongoing matches or practice sessions.
Use the refresh button located in the top-left corner of the spreadsheet view to update data in real-time.
You can use drop-down menus within spreadsheets to change teams or players dynamically during a match.
