After you complete all of the quizzes on the training website, it is time to complete your evaluation game! Please follow the directions below to get started:
Notify an Ops member (preferably Max Nuscher) that you are ready to begin. Email is the preferred method of communication (mnuscher@sportsinfosolutions.com)
Contact him on the day you are planning on completing the game.
During normal working hours (9-5 ET), he should respond within 5 minutes. Outside of that, please allow 30min-1 hour for a response
Contacting him during working hours is preferred if you plan on completing it later that night
He will put your name down in the Scout column next to the game assigned to you
This is THE ONLY game you should ever open in Training Banjo that is NOT in August/September
Open the corresponding Game Film link and download it to your desktop or laptop
You can download by right-clicking on the video itself > Save Video As > select file name and location > Save
This may take several minutes
On a mobile device, open Training Banjo and navigate to the date of your game in the Calendar
Your role will be Plays/Play Scout
If you do not get to see the coin toss on your video, that is ok. Just assume that the team kicking off the game won the toss and chose to Kick
Open the downloaded video file (when it's ready) on your desktop/laptop
Enter plays and data into Banjo as they happen on the recorded game film
You must complete the entire game in one sitting (allow 3-4 hours to complete the entire game)
If you can't complete it in one sitting, please let Max know ASAP so he doesn't grade a partial game
You should receive feedback in 1-3 days after completion, depending on the volume of games in the queue
Feedback will be distributed by email/text
Once you complete your evaluation game, you have completed training. Be on the lookout for communication about Huddles, and be sure to visit the Play Scout Refresher page for more practice before your first game
