About

GameSense Coaching

Read full description

GameSense was born out of our involvement with Paul Kinnerk in the Limerick Football academy. Paul introduced us to his philosophy and over the past 7 years we have used games as the primary method in teaching skills and tactical awareness in Gaelic Football. Through our involvement with schools we have seen the same approach work just as well with hurling. During our time with the academy we have designed hundreds of games that cover a wide range of themes within the game and we want to make these games accessible in a simple, easy to use manner, so that every coach can see the benefit of using games in their training sessions.

FieldFocus turns a phone or iPad on the sideline into a full match analysis system. Track your team live, tap by tap, then walk away with a report that tells you what actually decided the game. TEN SPORTS, PROPERLY MODELLED GAA Football, Hurling, Soccer, Rugby, Field Hockey, Aussie Rules, American Football, Basketball, Cricket and Baseball. Each sport has its own stats, its own pitch, and its own key performance indicators — not a generic counter with the names changed. BUILT FOR ONE PERSON, MID-MATCH Two taps to log a score and place it on the pitch. No second scorer needed. Every stat is customisable along with core stats that feed the KPIs, and anything you do not want to track can be removed. KICKOUT AND PUCKOUT ANALYSIS For GAA Football and Hurling, FieldFocus follows each restart through the passage of play and records what it produced — a score, a miss, or a score for the opposition. Short, medium and long deliveries are tracked separately, so you can see which restart is actually working. THE REPORT Shot maps, heat maps, possession, shooting accuracy, set-piece retention, scoring timelines and a written match summary. Print it or save it as a PDF straight from the phone. TRENDS ACROSS A SEASON Compare matches, see what changes between wins and defeats, and track which numbers are improving and which are slipping. WORKS ANYWHERE No account, no signup, no internet needed. Everything is stored on your device and nothing is sent anywhere. Back up and restore your matches whenever you like. PRICING Your first 3 matches are free. After that a pack of 5 match tokens costs €8.99 — about €1.80 a match. Tokens never expire. Built in Ireland by CB Link Technologies.
