Game Desk Analytics
Athletes who are subscribed to the 6-8 mobile app and scored by the 6-8 Game Desk get their game stats and analytics exported to their mobile app profiles.
What is the +/- Performance Indicator?
The 6-8 Performance Indicator was designed by Tony & Maggie as a way to evaluate athlete performance through game statistics. The PI is a weighted formula of stats that calculates the impact a player has on a game.
Tony & Maggie started out by speaking with a group of top US college coaches to get a better understanding of what they look for in a potential recruit. They combined that information with their extensive knowledge of the game (and personal playing experience) to create a weighted formula that gives a certain amount of importance to each game stat (shots, goals, earned ejections etc.).
Your PI is a useful tool to see how you impact a game based on all your collected game statistics. For example, some athletes may have thought they had a ‘great’ game because they scored a lot of goals – but they may have also negatively impacted the game in a variety of ways. Or vice versa.
