How to Use the Film Room

For Players

Check your homework. Go to the Homework tab to see your assigned games. Each game has a film to watch and stats to track.
Click "Start" to open the tracking page. The game video will play on the left side of your screen.
Watch the video and track in real time. As you see events happen, select the player number on the right, then tap the matching action button.
Don't pause! The point is to track events as they happen in real time, just like a real game. Your timing accuracy is part of your score.
Set the quarter using the Q1-Q4 buttons when the quarter changes in the video.
Set the context (Even, Man Up, Man Down, etc.) before logging events. It auto-resets to Even after 30 seconds or after you record a stat.
Submit when the video ends. Click the green "Submit" button.
Check your score after the coach grades your submission. Go to Homework and click "Review" to see how you did.

Zone 2	Point — top center, directly in front of the goal
Zone 3	Right Wing — top right of the pool
Zone 4	1-2 — bottom left, between positions 1 and 2

Zone 6	3-4 — bottom right, between positions 3 and 4
Counter	Shot taken on a fast break / transition — separate button below the diagram

After picking the zone, choose the outcome: Goal, Saved, Blocked, or Wide.

Each of your events is compared to the coach's answer key.
An event is Caught if it matches the same event type within 5 seconds of the coach's event.
An event is Missed if the coach logged it but you didn't.
An event is Extra if you logged something that doesn't match anything in the answer key.
Score = Caught / (Caught + Missed) × 100%
