Football Scouting Report Systems
BASIC8-34
Submitted by: Harold L. Singer
Operating System: EDUsystem-30
Source Language: BASIC
Abstract: Two systems for analyzing football scouting information are described. Results of each play are coded on special mark sense cards and the game is exhaustively analyzed by a series of chained EDU-30 BASIC language programs. Actual use by our coaching staff has produced a time savings of from 18 to 30 coaching man hours per week.

Those not having a CM-SE mark sense card reader but equipment capable of running EDU-30 BASIC or OMSI-BASIC can easily code the play information on paper tape using the TTY.

Either of the two described systems can be used unchanged if your coaches can adapt to the notation system used. If they cannot, these systems should prove excellent guides for producing a tailor made system to your coach's specifications.

Note: CM-8E mark sense card reader recommended.
