CxSports Satellite Motivation & Purposes

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Sports industries' development based on data analytics, modeling, and simulation are rapidly changing and are in a disruptive innovation moment. Professional sports teams commonly have a plethora of data, but do they know how to extract useful information? Or how we can transform data into actionable intelligence? This situation causes sports managers to increasingly suffer from the Data-Rich and Information-Poor Syndrome (DRIPS): when a director has plenty of data from players' performance but doesn't have a clear roadmap with scientific and technological tools to make data actionable.

Nowadays, in sports, many data platforms exist that collect, share, and leverage data related to the players' performance and actions during a match or season. This data explosion has several difficulties translating data into information and practical knowledge that can lead to better strategic decision-making for different users. Since knowledge generation from sports analytics data requires a scientific perspective, an integrated data science, computational sciences, and complexity science approach is needed to face the DRIPS.

In this context, our satellite will focus on integrating different actors and sectors of the sports ecosystem, such as managers, researchers, trainers, entrepreneurs, angel investors, start-up CEOs, students, and academics. Our main goal is to generate relevant interactions between them to study and analyze sports complexity by integrating scientific and social knowledge.

In this edition, we will center on soccer, since in soccer, we find a multitude of complex systems, from the game itself, the competition, the club, and a player to fans.

The central axis and start point of studying soccer will be based on planning strategies to develop new and more creative systems in a competitive context. We argued that from analysis of relevant interactions that we will find in the competition, we could reduce issues and constraints that have been the understanding of the game very complex. This way, the generation of assessment systems with realistic and practical indicators of performance and selection will be analyzed.

Submission Guidelines

Talks will correspond to oral presentations in a short format. That is a 12-min exposition, followed by 3-min questions and answers.

Abstract submission will open for the two types of presentations. The closing date will be July 10.

Presenters accepted must register for the conference or for the Satellite Session to have their presentations confirmed. Each presenter can register one presentation for the CxSports Satellite.

Format requirements:

Abstracts must be prepared using CCS2022 official templates. Please go to the conference page to download it, and remember, do not modify the style of the templates. Both templates include further instructions on how to prepare the abstract. In all cases, it is essential to generate a single-page double-column pdf file

Venue

The conference will be held in the Auditorium of Palma de Mallorca Convention Center.

Address: Paseo Marítimo, 18 - 07014 - Palma de Mallorca, Illes Balears (Spain)

The strategic location of the building is excellent because it is in the center of the city. In the same way, that joins the highways that connect the east and west parts of the Island, just 10 minutes from the Airport.

Palma de Mallorca's excellent air communications with the Spanish Mainland and Europe are one of its most fantastic attractions, both for tourism and Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Events.

Palma Airport connects direct, without stopovers, with over 60 European airports.
