Inhaltsangabe

In the modern era of sport, data has become as essential as discipline, preparation, and talent. From the pioneering insights of Bill James in baseball to the transformative front-office strategies of Daryl Morey in professional basketball, analytics has reshaped how teams compete, evaluate, and win. Sports Analytics is designed to guide readers through this evolution, bridging theory and practice across performance analysis, tactical decision-making, predictive modeling, and business intelligence. Whether you are a student, practitioner, coach, analyst, or executive, this book provides a structured pathway to understanding how data can inform smarter decisions on and off the field.


The chapters progress from foundational principles, measurement, data quality, and statistical reasoning to advanced applications such as player evaluation, team strategy optimization, injury risk modeling, and integrity analytics. Beyond competition, the book explores scouting, recruitment, and the commercial dimensions of sport, recognizing that analytics now influences every layer of the sporting ecosystem. With practical frameworks, real-world examples, visualization patterns, and project ideas, this text equips readers not only to interpret numbers but to translate insight into competitive advantage. The goal is not merely to analyze sport, but to enhance it, through evidence, clarity, and informed innovations.
