Performance analysis as a discipline lies somewhere between national analysis and sports biomechanics. As of yet a conclusive definition for the area has yet to formalized due to its recent inception. However, it involves the collection of statistical data and video footage in a reliable and consistent manner so that tactical and technical inferences can be made with regard to an athlete's or team's performance. The discipline of performance analysis is vital in the feedback process. The statistics and associated video footage can be provided to the coaches and athletes real-time post- event. With the extra time available when providing post event feedback depth and complexity of analysis can be far greater.
