Athlete Groups in Editor & Reporting

The OpenField Groups feature lets you create a group of athletes to filter your reports, PIP athletes, and select athletes to graph. You can create groups in two places: within the Settings menu and within the Editor.

How to create Groups in Settings

Creating groups in the Settings menu lets you set up your squads before an Activity begins.

1. Navigate to the Settings menu and select Groups.
2. Click + Group.
3. Enter a name for your group.
4. Select the athletes you want to include.
   • You can filter athletes by sport or team before selecting them. For example, select the American Football team to view only those athletes.
5. Your group saves automatically and is ready to use in the Editor.

How to manage Groups in the Editor

You can view, edit, and create groups directly while reviewing an Activity in the Editor.

How to view and edit Groups

1. Open the Activity in the Editor.
2. Select the Groups tab to view all groups that contain active athletes in that Activity.
3. To edit an existing group, select it, then add or remove athletes.

How to create new Groups in the Editor

1. In the Editor, select the Groups tab in the Athletes Panel, then click the option to create a new group.
2. Name the group (for example, Defense).
3. Select your team from the dropdown and drag the required athletes into the group.
4. To view their data, select the group and click Graph athletes.

How to add a Group to a Period

Groups make it much faster to PIP (add to periods) multiple athletes at once.

1. Go to the Editor.
2. Select one or more Periods from your Timeline or List.
3. Select the group you want from the Groups tab.
4. Click the group to add its athletes to the selected Period(s).

How to filter by Group in Reporting

Groups also make it much faster to filter multiple athletes at once in Reporting. 

1. Go to Reporting.
2. Select a report (for example, the Activity Report).
3. Click the Filters button.
4. Select the group you want from the Filter Groups dropdown.
