What are the different SportsCode Data Imports
SportsCode data can be imported into an OpenField Console as an XML file and there are two import options available, depending on the version of the OpenField Console you are using:
- OpenField Console version 3.3 or below: Classic SportsCode
- OpenField Console version 3.3 or later: Classic SportsCode or Hudl SportsCode
The XML file can be exported from your SportsCode software by selecting the timeline (and specific timeline instances) and exporting as a single XML file. Once exported, this XML file needs to be copied to your OpenField laptop.
Note: When using SportsCode, we recommend your coding window include a ‘Start’ code. This ‘Start’ code MUST be selected at the beginning of each period (e.g. 1st half; 2nd half). This will enable SportsCode to be correctly aligned with the periods created in OpenField.
