Imagine spending hours after practice, sifting through spreadsheets, trying to make sense of athlete performance data. What if you could reclaim that time and use it to actually coach? In today's competitive sports landscape, data is king. But only if you can interpret it and turn it into action.
Sportreact revolutionized COD and agility training by integrating timing gates with a reaction time stimulus. But simply collecting data isn't enough. Sportreact PLUS takes it to the next level, providing the powerful analytics you need to truly understand and improve your athletes' speed, agility, and reaction time.
Sportreact PLUS simplifies performance analysis by automating every step of the process. Data is collected automatically, key metrics are calculated instantly, and comprehensive reports are generated at both the athlete and team levels. This includes rankings, benchmarks, and trend tracking, giving you a complete picture of performance and progress.
Understanding athlete performance requires more than just looking at individual scores. It’s about seeing the whole picture—individual progress, athlete comparisons, team-wide trends, and even variations within specific drills. Sportreact PLUS empowers you to personalize training, making it easy to identify strengths, spot weaknesses, and optimize programs for peak performance.
Let’s dive into how Sportreact Plus helps you reduce the toil and spend more time optimizing performance.

Meet "Athlete analytics"
a) View each athlete's key info
Athlete profile stores the important information about each athlete: in addition to name, photo, and team, it shows height, weight, age, level, and the sports that the athlete trains. A fully completed profile allows coaches to access calculations of velocity, acceleration, power, and force in sprints, as well as the comparison with normative results.
b) Monitor athlete's progress with trend graphs
The Trends section on an athlete's profile provides detailed insights into their performance over any chosen period (1 week, 4 weeks, month, year, or custom range).
For each drill/test, easily view athlete's:
starting score at the the beginning of the season,
ending score at the end of the season,
change rate over the training period,
score (0 - 100) that compares athletes with the team average.
Trend graphs provide a clear view of long-term trends and short-term variations, as well as fluctuations in scores.
Colors and change rates show progress or decline.
Scores compare results with team:
Green: above average
Orange: near average
Red: below average
Additional tables and bar charts in the "More Details" section provide exact scores from the trend graph. Go into the details to pinpoint those reps where something changed to identify the cause and take action — whether it's a measurement error or a genuine decline.
c) Benchmark athletes against the norms (BETA)
Sportreact Plus compares each athlete’s best results in each drill to the normative data for their sport, age, and sex from relevant sources. The norms table shows data for athlete's age and higher age groups, marking "green" all ranks the athlete fits. This lets you quickly identify those players who are outperforming their age groups. Sportreact Plus also calculates the difference between the athlete’s results and the normative range for higher categories, showing how much progress they need to advance to the next group.
*Normative data is available only for standard tests, sourced from relevant scientific articles that have generated and validated it.
Benchmark against the norms is available for following tests:
Sprint Test 10-20-30 Meter
T Agility Test
Arrowhead Agility Drill
20 Meter Agility Test (5-10-5 Test)
505 Agility Test
Sprint Test 15-30 Meter
Zigzag Running Drill
Cone Agility Test (L Agility Test)
Illinois Agility Drill
For the following reactive tests, reference values are determined based on the average performance metrics of athletes utilizing the application:
Stop'N'Go Reactive Agility Test
Y-Agility Test
d) View all personal bests in one place
The personal bests section displays each athlete's top scores across all drills on a single screen. The search function lets coaches easily find specific results, including the exact data and time of each session when the personal bests were achieved.
e) Compare athlete to team-wide data
By saving data for each athlete, coaches access team-wide calculations such as team averages, and scores of highest and lowest performers. Athlete analytics provide a quick overview of each athlete’s results compared to the team, across multiple drills and selected metrics, all displayed in the performance graph.
To compare athlete to team-wide data:
Select the team you want to compare your athlete to.
Choose two or more drills you wish for assessment.
Select a metric for each drill (For sprints: total time, velocity, power, force. For hits: total time, number of hits, min, max, average).
Set the period for comparison.
The athlete's score (t-score, 0-100) is the average of their selected drill scores, standardized to team's results. This gives a clear view of how the athlete compares to the team average. A score of 50 is average, so anything over 50 indicates above-average performance, and below 50 reveals lower performance than the team's average.
f) Easily visualise data with spider graphs and charts
Performance graph is a simple visualisation based on the athlete's score showing how they rank relative to:
✓ highest and lowest performers
✓ in each of the selected drills/tests.
2. Compare Athletes: See How They Stack Up
Sportreact Plus allows you to compare multiple athletes based on their performance across multiple drills.
Use athlete comparison to:
Rank athletes across multiple drills using standardized scores (T-scores, 0-100).
Visualize skill balance with spider graphs.
Compare performances over different time periods to measure improvements.
