Agile Sports Victor Holman

Sports are advancing at a lightning pace. Data is available on a scale never before seen. The popularity of sports continues to rise and salary caps are at an all-time high. With change being a constant, teams that surface to the top are the teams that are able to absorb the information coming in, translate it to meaningful information, make quick, informed decisions and yield constant, quantifiable improvements. And with salaries skyrocketing through the roof, more and more teams are finding themselves with big contracts and little returns to show for it. Over the next few years, the organizations that are able to architect rosters with players who can learn how to add quantifiable value and contribute to the team's overall goals will reap the greatest returns. And the teams that do not adapt their data and player development models to reflect the speed of new information and change will find themselves on the bottom. The main challenge that is keeping sports teams from unlocking the full potential of their data is their inability to translate complex data sets into data that players (the ones executing the work) can easily understand and identify ways to add value. Data is useless if it can't be easily analyzed and acted on by players. The Agile Sports Framework, created by Victor Holman of Agile Sports Analytics, LLC, uncovers better ways of creating team synergy, improving team dynamics and applying real-time and historical analytics in order to reach team goals. The rules of the Agile Sports Framework integrates the pillars, roles, events, and artifacts guiding the relationships and interactions between them. The Agile Sports Analytics tool drives the people, processes and artifacts that make the Agile Sports Framework so effective.
