A Practical Introduction for Analysts, Coaches, and Researchers

This course introduces you to the fundamentals of sports analytics using R. We will focus primarily on creating effective data visualizations that lead to actionable insights. Designed for both beginners and those with some experience as analysts, the course focuses on practical skills for sourcing, cleaning, visualizing, and presenting sports data through interactive dashboards.

Throughout the course, we will work with real-world sports datasets to apply skills in a practical context. By transforming raw data into meaningful visualizations and interactive dashboards, you’ll be equipped to communicate insights clearly and effectively to diverse audiences. Whether presenting to coaches, performance analysts, or fans, the emphasis will be on tailoring visual outputs to ensure accessibility and impact, ultimately supporting data-driven decision-making and performance enhancement.

• • Import and clean sports datasets from various sources.
  • Identify and correct common data issues.
  • Create compelling visualizations using ggplot2 and other R packages.
  • Build interactive dashboards using Quarto.
  • Customize dashboards for different audiences (e.g., coaches, analysts, fans).
