The development of new technologies establishes new methods for collecting and analysing data. This leads to a deeper and more efficient evaluation of a player. Hockey analytics is one of the main keys to players’ accelerated development. The accumulation of the data allows the teaching staff to determine what training works and which does not; what strengths and weaknesses a player possesses and how they can be improved; what are the current technological trends that can be implemented to increase performance. All of the above information allows coaches to train players in the most effective and productive way.
