Tracking screens

Which action groups you see while tracking — and what happens when you tap them.

While live tracking you see big tiles — like "Shot on goal", "7m", "Turnover". This page explains how to adjust the overview to your team.

Two things to keep in mind

  1. Screen — which action groups you see while tracking, and in which order.
  2. Follow-up questions — what SportsFlow still wants to know after you tap (success? From where? Who?).

SportsFlow ships ready-made default screens for handball: Complete, Attack phase, Defense phase. You can freely adjust them on every plan — custom actions come with Team season.

Editing a screen

Go to Tracking screens in the app (native: More → Screens).

Screen editor: sortable groups list on the left, preview on the right

  • On the left, a sortable list of groups (Attack · Defense · Set plays · Penalties). Each group expands into a sortable list of its actions.
  • Every group and every single action has a visibility switch; the group shows for example "4 of 6 visible".
  • Reorder by dragging (mouse) or with the arrow buttons.
  • On the right you see the preview — this is how the screen looks while tracking.
  • "New screen" creates a screen — empty, or based on a default screen as a template.

Different actions in the 1st and 2nd half? Create two screens — e.g. "Attack 1H" and "Attack 2H" — and switch between them at the top of tracking.

Creating custom actions

From Team season you can build custom actions. For each one you set what SportsFlow asks afterward:

SettingWhat it means for you
SideOwn action or opponent action
On success counts as a goal forNobody, us, or the opponent
Success (goal / no goal)"Did it go in?"
Shot positionDon't capture · Zone (tap) · Exact position
Goal mapDon't capture · Zone (tap) · Exact position
PlayerWho did it?
AssistWho set it up?
Shot typeJump shot, standing throw …

Trajectory and game situation can be captured too.

Play actions link to a drawn play — while tracking you then pick the play and whether it worked.

Free plan

On Starter (free) you use the ready-made handball actions and arrange them freely in your own screens. Custom actions come with Team season.

Tips from the sideline

  1. Not too many actions — better to hide a group than show 30 tiles.
  2. Drag frequent ones up — order within the group decides what sits at the top of the screen.
  3. Keep plays in their own group — don't bury them among single actions.
  4. Short names — "7m" instead of "7-metre throw without goalkeeper".
