Analysis of tracking data from French Rugby (League Wide data)
Project Description
Catapult has been awarded a contract to supply technology, and create a data infrastructure for the FCF (French Rugby). This project creates a huge amount of data points, and potentially will provide major insights into the physical determinants of performance in elite level rugby.
Execution of this task will require creation and deployment of algorithms to assimilate information, and align it to emergent performance questions.
This project will require a student conversant in modern data science techniques (e.g. competent with ‘R’, ‘Matlab’ or similar) and with a strong interest in performance sport
Project Location
TBC
Expected Outcome
Creation of algorithms which will streamline the creation of outputs in a ‘user friendly’ and easy to understand manner, and which will address specified performance questions
