The coach dashboard: your season at a glance

Every coach has a picture of how their team is doing — and that picture runs three weeks behind on average. The dashboard is the correction: the current state of your season, on one screen, every time you open the app.

What's on the dashboard

At the top sits one button with the team and the season you're looking at, for example Women's 1 · '26/'27. That choice drives every number on the screen: tap it to switch team, or pick the current season, an earlier one or all seasons together; at the bottom of that sheet is Manage seasons. Below it comes what's happening now: the Next up card with your next practice or match (who's in, who's out and, for a practice, whether the plan is ready) and To do, with practices whose attendance you still need to record and results you can still share. Then the announcements and the team goal, the sentence the season revolves around. The season card sums up the season in matches won and lost, side-out, sets and practices, with up to four lines that stand out, such as the lowest attendance or who plays least. Tapping such a line, or All season insights, opens the season insights: there you find attendance per player, the effort podium with the players pulling hardest, and playing time, with the least-used player at the top. Goal, behaviour and culture in one place.

Open it and know what is happening now: what still needs doing, what is coming up and who is coming.

What the matches give back

Alongside the behaviour side, the season card shows the core of your matches: won and lost, sets won and the side-out percentage. In the season insights every block opens with its own conclusion: the results with the points per match, the top performers in four categories (attack, serve, block and reception, that fourth one deliberately so the libero makes it too), and then the things to watch: the most errors, and who turns up late most often. Every player line is one tap away from the player profile.

If you've scored matches live, the Serve pressure block joins them in the season insights: a ring showing the team's side-out percentage — the odds you win the rally when the opposition serves, with the number of rallies measured next to it — and below it the longest serving runs of the season, the top three players with their longest streak of points in a row. With no live-scored matches, that block simply stays away.

The weekly dashboard minute

Make it a habit: one fixed moment per week (Sunday evening works well), thirty seconds looking at the season card and the season insights, with three questions. Is attendance moving? A player who drops two places gets a quick word this week. Does the podium match your gut feeling? If not, your gut is due an update. Is the goal still the goal? As long as the answer is yes, you don't need to do anything — the dashboard exists precisely to reassure you without having to dig.

From signal to action

The dashboard doesn't answer detail questions — for those you click through to the player statistics or the match overview. Its job is to signal: the sinking bar, the shift on the podium, the side-out sagging, the goal drifting out of sight. Rule of thumb: the dashboard decides where you dig in this week, not what you'll find.

When the season is over

Once your season's end date has passed, a card appears at the top saying Your season has ended, with the name and end date and a Set up season button. That's also the explanation for why the figures below it may read zero: you set up the new season, and the statistics start counting again. The season just finished is kept and stays available through the team and season button at the top.

Players with an account of their own look at the same screen in their own role: they see their own attendance and performances, and when they earn a new badge, a card that leads to their trophy cabinet.

Share the dashboard with the team now and then. One screenshot at the start of practice — 'this is where we stand' — makes the season a shared possession. Teams that see their own attendance correct themselves.

Frequently asked questions

Which match figures are on the dashboard?

The season card holds the core: wins, losses, sets and the side-out percentage. The point flow, the top performers in four categories and the longest serving runs are one tap further, in the season insights. The detail per match stays in the match overview and the player profiles; signal and depth are deliberately kept apart.

Why don't I see side-out or serving runs?

Those two come from live scoring. If there are no live-scored matches in the season you've selected, the serve pressure block simply doesn't appear.

Can I look back at an earlier season?

Yes, through the team and season button at the top of the dashboard: tap it and pick the current season, an earlier season or all seasons together. Every figure on the screen follows that choice.

How up to date is the dashboard?

As up to date as your record-keeping: every ticked-off practice and completed match feeds through immediately. Track consistently and you have a dashboard that never lies.

My attendance bars are dropping across the team — now what?

That's the signal to dive into attendance tactics: first check the trend per month and per practice day, then read the article on raising practice attendance for the approach.
