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
Two chips sit side by side at the top of the screen: the team you're looking at, and the season. That season chip drives every single number below it — pick the current season, an earlier one or all seasons together — and it doubles as the way into season management. Below that sits what gives direction and what measures what matters: the team goal — the sentence the season revolves around — the season attendance per player (the bars from 100% down to the straggler), the effort podium with the players pulling hardest, and the court time this season, with the least-used player at the top. Goal, behaviour and culture on one screen.
What the matches give back
Alongside the behaviour side, the dashboard shows the core of your matches: sets won, lost and played, the point-by-point flow of each match, and the top performances in four categories — attack, block, serve and best pass, that fourth one deliberately so the libero makes the dashboard too. At the bottom are the things to watch: the most errors, and who turns up late most often. Every line is one tap away from the player profile.
If you've scored matches live, the serve pressure this season block joins them: 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 of looking 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 season chip.
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 core: wins, losses and sets, the point flow, the top performances in four categories, the side-out percentage and the longest serving runs. 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 season chip at the top of the dashboard: 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.
