Hey folks, created this project to track my Football/running activity.

No real football games to track yet because of the pandemic but I did track some running/kicking the ball sessions.

Here is how they look like - https://mylifefootball.com/activity/46 - https://mylifefootball.com/activity/4

Very very early days and it is something ready only for power users. Login with strava is required and the "social" aspects of this might even violate their API terms (so, If I pursue this further, I need to create my own apps collecting data)

How does this look like? Anyone else besides me interested in something like this.

This is absolutely fantastic. We’re just about to start playing 5 a side football again so I can’t wait to give it a try out in a few weeks. Hope it works as well on a smaller pitch.

This is actually pretty cool! Would be awesome for smaller teams or clubs to use as an analysis tool.

It will be hard to get this working on with professional teams as is, you see wearing a watch is not allowed in professional sports.

Besides, this is almost a solved problem in B2B, many many provides for professional teams
