SportTracker software free instruction manual here (PDF format)

SportTracker has enabled our National Team Coaching Staff to record and monitor player and team performance in a manner that has never been possible for us before.

The ease of use of the software – the ability to determine the data you want to collect, to monitor where on the field patterns are forming and the layout of the data means that we can respond promptly to what’s occurring on the field of play and relay it to our Head Coach and his staff. I would reccomend the software to any team seeking a solution for performance analysis, it’s so easy to download, easy to master and great value at the price it’s available for.
