AND1 STATS - Player Efficiency Ratings (PER) app for iPhone and iPad

Are you a basketball coach who’s tired of manually tracking player statistics via paper and pencil and need a more efficient and effective method to track Player Efficiency Ratings (PERs) and share them with your team? Have your tried all of the basketball statistics apps but can’t find the one that’s SIMPLE to use and actually helps you with your on-court coaching decisions? Imagine having the ability to know Player Efficiency Ratings (PERs) for all your players in real time. Introducing… AND1 STATS – Player Efficiency Ratings (PERs) for the iPAD.

The app has been designed BY basketball coaches FOR basketball coaches. The development team has spent countless hours working with coaches at all levels to produce a very simple yet effective Player Efficiency Rating (PER) computational and statistics app. With a simple “+1 tap” the app keeps track of all points, assists, steals/tieups, blocks/deflections, rebounds, charges, missed baskets, and turnovers and automatically calculates PERs and PER/min values.

In addition, there are several other useful tools built into the app. The game clock runs and automatically tracks player minutes so the coach can assess and determine playing time. There are also several counters to keep track of game fouls, timeouts, and opponent scores. Unlike many other apps that require the user to tap several times to record a statistic, AND1 STATS implements a +1 entry method to capture all statistics. Make a mistake? No worries, simply tap the back button to undo the entry and continue recording the stats. Finished the game and need to make additional corrections? No worries, simply switch the mode to -1 and decrement the statistic entry as needed. Once the game is over, the user can export the file to a .pdf file so the statistics can be shared with all the players on a team. The user can also upload the entire game statistics to the cloud, allowing coaches and players to view all the PERs and statistics captured during an entire season.

WHAT COACHES ARE SAYING

“After every game, our team reviews the game statistics, not really looking at the individual box scores but the Player Efficiency Ratings (PERs) and the per minute values. The app allows me to create my own algorithm to calculate PERs which is important since every team values the metrics differently. I want to minimize errant shots and turnovers so I place a -2 points on misses and turnovers. During the game, players have it in the back of their minds to make plays that increase their ratings, not plays that decrease their ratings. The app helps me coach and helps the players play better during the game.”

“I value all the detailed statistics the app offers, but the two that helps me with the parents are the minutes played and efficiency ratings per minute. For club and travel basketball, the biggest complaint I receive from parents is the minutes played for their athlete. I use the PER/min to validate and support all my substitution decisions. I can’t have a player on the court for 90% of the time if he keeps turning the ball over (negative PER) or doesn’t contribute to the team performance. This is one more the more useful basketball statistics apps I have seen. It’s not complicated and it’s very easy to use.”
