Individual Development Plan (IDP)

Traditional metrics do not explain why teams succeed or fail, and they do not reveal whether each player’s contribution had a positive or negative impact on the game. This lack of actionable insight led to the creation of Performance+IDP.

Limitations of traditional data

Traditional performance data is often too expensive and time consuming to collect, difficult to process and interpret, and fails to provide players and coaches with a clear, actionable development plan.
