Today we would like to welcome another Nacsport user into our community, London Scottish. This Rugby Union team play in The Greene King IPA Championship and are currently sitting mid-table after 8 games. The team have chosen a Nacsport Scout Plus licence to carry out their video analysis workflows, which are spear headed by Jonathan Bray, who is the Head of Performance Analysis at the club. I had previously met Jonathan when I was on the panel at the Millfield School analyst interviews, so it's great to be able to be in contact with Jonathan again and to see him in this new position.
Jonathan has kindly provided some words on why the club chose Nacsport, how it is used and what he thinks about it too. So I will leave you with his words, but before that, I would like to say a big thanks to London Scottish and Jonathan Bray and wish them all of the best for the season!
I approached AnalysisPro Ltd because I needed a video analysis software to conduct detailed analysis on both teams and individuals players. I had been recommended to the company by my predecessor, as they could provide a more affordable alternative to other analysis software, and having trialled the software once before I knew it was similar to products I had already used, which was essential in order to speed up my learning. I was recommended a Nacsport Scout Plus license which did everything I needed (live capture and coding, adding descriptors, reviewing a data matrix), and whilst there were a few initial teething problems, the help and advice I received from the support team was great. Of particular note was the turnaround speed of a new feature I requested. Expecting it to take a couple of weeks but finding it ready to use in just a few days was a huge asset. I am able to provide coaches with live statistics during matches utilising the dashboard feature, provide detailed performance reviews of both the team and the individual players as well as creating preview videos and presentations for the players to watch. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for analysis software at a reasonable cost!
