Question

I need some assistance with explaining how an analysis of Averages is used in any way by any professional Sports Team to improve the performance of the team. I need to include a few examples of a professional sports team would be baseball, soccer, and ice hockey, but no discussion of school or non-professional sports teams.

At least a large part of my answer should be an explanation of how that concept is applied to the company specified in the above question.

Answer 1

With the advent of technology, the performance of athletes can be monitored quite easily and effectively in the current scenario. Every move of the athlete can be observed and analyzed and stats can be studied so as to inform the athlete about his strong and weak points. This way the strategy of the game as well as the player can be developed effectively.

The analysis of averages is quite a favorite method, used to evaluate performances, in different games. In baseball, the batting average is used to evaluate the performance of the player in the way, he hits the balls. The batting average is also measured for a slow paced ball, a medium paced ball as well as a fast ball. This way, the overall batting capability of the player can be analyzed and according training can be customized and strategized to enhance his performance. The analysis of averages is also done in Cricket. In the game of Cricket, the analysis of average is used to understand how a batsman can react to a bouncer ball or a spin ball. The analysis of averages is also used to check the pace of a bowler in different pitches. Accordingly the players re picked for a match and the strategy of the game is decided upon.
