Planr

Matches and statistics

Getting started with Matches

Matches in Planr is built for handball coaches who want to track how the team and individual players develop over time. You record numbers from matches, live or after the fact, and use the insight in your training planning.

You can use Matches in two ways:

  • In Planr (web or the Planr app): open Matches from the home screen (Planr Home) or navigation.
  • In Planr Stats: a separate App Store app built for live recording and season statistics.

The same account works in both places.

Access and plans

  • Stats Basic (free): up to 3 matches with statistics, live recording and a basic overview. Match sharing is locked.
  • Stats Pro: unlimited matches, sharing, trends and full season insight. Bought in Planr Stats via the App Store, or covered when you have Planr Pro or Planr Hub.
  • Stats Pro + AI: Stats Pro with extra AI analyses.

If you already have Planr Pro or Hub, you usually do not need a separate Stats Pro purchase to use Matches in Planr. See Subscriptions, pricing and payment.

How the module is laid out

At the bottom of the screen you have four tabs:

  • Matches: match list, create matches and start live recording.
  • Squad: players, jersey numbers and positions.
  • Trends: form curves, key numbers and leaderboards for the season.
  • Statistics: table with season totals per player.

Live recording opens from a match in the match list.

What you do where:

  • Build the Squad before your first match.
  • Create matches under Matches and record them live or afterwards.
  • Track development in Trends and Statistics.

In clubs with multiple teams you can filter which teams you see data for, via the team picker.

See Recording a match and Season totals and development for details.

The philosophy: development, not ranking

Statistics in Planr is built around a few principles worth keeping in mind before you get started:

  • Follow trends, not single numbers. Averages over time say more than any single match.
  • Celebrate more than goals. Assists, steals, good defensive actions and save percentage deserve as much attention as scoring.
  • Keep negative numbers internal. Misses and technical errors belong in your own analysis, not on the team list.
