Analyze
The Analyze tab is where you go to view the statistics for your recorded matches. On theAnalyze screen, you will see a list of all your current teams. You can always experiment withthe “Sample Team”.
Navigation• Real-Time Analysis• Categories• Outputting Stats•
Navigation
A very powerful feature of iStatVball is the ability to “drill-down” on your statistics data. Forexample, you can see the All-Time hitting percentage for your team, or you can drill-downand see the hitting percentage for just one Season, or drill-down further and see a singleMatch, or drill-down even further and see an individual Set.
A drill-down path might look something like:All-Time - Season - Tournament - Match - Set
At any point along this path, you can either summarize the stats at that level, or continue todrill-down further.
Tap this button to summarize stats at the current level. Tapping at the teamlevel will show All-Time stats for the team.
Tap this button to drill-down to the next level in the hierarchy.
TIP: Tapping on a calculator button is much different than tapping on a drill-downarrow. The calculator summarizes stats while the arrow drills-down to the next level inthe stats hierarchy.
Other Criteria
There are additional analysis criteria available that are not directly part of the drill-downhierarchy. These include analyzing by:
1
Match (View by single or multiple matches)• Date (View by single day or a range of dates)• Opponent• Location• League• Home vs. Away• Statistician•
For each of these criteria, you can tap the table row to see the list of all matchescorresponding to the specified criteria. For each match, you can then use the normalsummarize and drill-down techniques.
Last Match
When drilling-down on a team, you will see a Last Match option, which is a convenient wayto quickly jump to the stats for the most recently completed match.
Current Match
If a team currently has a match in-progress, you will see a Current Match option, whichallows you to conveniently jump directly to that match. In-progress matches and sets will behighlighted within the navigation interface.
Real-Time Analysis
You can analyze stats in real-time at any point while recording a match. Simply pause yourrecording session then switch over to the Analyze tab. Use the Current Match option (seeCurrent Match) to jump directly to the match in-progress.
You can view stats calculated up to the moment for either the match as a whole or for justthe current set. All stat categories are available and can be customized under Settings (see Summary Reports). This is a powerful feature for analyzing stats during timeouts orin-between sets.
2
Categories
Once you have navigated to the desired level, you can choose from a variety of statisticscategories.
Players
Select the Players item to view a list of all players on the roster. From there, choose a playerto view a summary report of statistics for just that player. The report will also include acomparison against totals and averages for the entire team.
Custom Reports

A custom report can include anycombination of stats categories and individual tables. You can create any number of customreports (Pro) (see Custom Reports).
All Categories
Select the All Categories item to view a compilation of all team stats categories at once.
TIP: The All Categories option is a great way to view all of your team stats at once,but generating the report can be slow on some devices.
Overall

Recording stats is easy once you have a feel for the general flow of events. Here are thesteps you will find yourself repeating often.
Launch the stats recording interface (see Launching the Interface).1. Player performs a stat-able action, enter stat for that player (see Entering a Stat).2. Repeat step 2 until the rally ends.3. Mark the end of a rally by updating the score (see Updating the Score).4. Repeat steps 2-4 until the set is over.5.
Launching the Interface
To begin recording stats, first start a new recording session (see Recording a Match). Youwill then find yourself within the stats recording interface. Here you have useful informationat your fingertips, and you can quickly and easily enter stats for your team.
Interface Views
iStatVball supports a variety of ways to view the stat recording interface so that you canchoose the view that allows you to record stats most efficiently.

TIP: To prevent the iPad from changing orientations, use the orientation lock buttoninside the iOS task bar. With iOS 4.3 or newer, you can use the switch on the side ofthe iPad to lock orientation (can be enabled from within iOS Settings).
Layouts
Each stat interface orientation supports two views. The layout can be selected in the SelectView area in the upper-right corner of the interface. Choose the view that makes recordingstats most efficient for you.

24
Court View
Court view displays the players as they are physically positioned on the court. The playersare still in service order, as in List View. There are two “rows” of players, three in the frontrow and three in the back row. The front row is closest to the top of the screen. Players willrotate around the court in typical clockwise fashion with the server always located in theright-back (RB).
TIP: If you like the Court View but do not want the players rotating around the screen,go to Settings and turn off the Court View Rotates option.
Player Area
