On Wednesday, Oct. 18, CSC is offering our third FREE - and open to all - live webinar in our series of understanding statistics and stat rules. This will focus on soccer.
(Our first webinar focused on football stats and rules and is on-demand; the second focused on volleyball and also is on-demand.)
Generating consistent statistics and consistent stat reporting are essential duties of each athletic communications department. This live soccer webinar, featuring leading soccer statisticians from the college environment, will familiarize CSC members with a review of soccer rules as they apply to statistics for 2023-24 and with using proper volleyball scoring techniques to register accurate statistics.
This is a webinar for all divisional levels and levels of volleyball statistics expertise. The presenters will welcome your questions throughout the webinar.
Please note: This is NOT a training session on "how-to" work with Genius/NCAA Live Stats or Presto stats; rather, you will gain a basic understanding of the rules of the games and an understanding on how to score plays.
Join these presenters for an open discussion and Q&A.
