Related. I know a company that does analysis for soccer games. I thought it was state of the art too until they told me they just hired a bunch of people from China that logged every move (distance ran, kicks, etc) from eveyone and also put it in the database.
There's plenty of other blogs / articles out there now that people are trying to "Moneyball" soccer a bit more. Like anything that has a tinge of glamour and a lot of money around it, you have to take poor earnings to "pay your dues" in the trenches. Same as other aspects of pro sports, entertainment, etc. Hopefully something motivates you other than money.
I was curious about the logging system for that kind of data. Now that I know the name of the position I made a search and found that most systems use people to input the data. Thank you.
