Tracing a training session or scrimmage


Trace’s AI-powered processing relies on hundreds of signals present in a typical game, from game structure, to duration, to formations. When Tracing a practice, you may be departing from these standard signals. If you'd like to use game processing and get personalized highlights, your practice will need to look like a game. Doing drills with multiple balls or some other non game scenario? We have a solution for that as well.

Can I choose how my game is processed after my session or game?

No, you must select either a training session or game before you begin recording.

Option 1: Your practice session does not look like a game

What does this mean?

  • The field is a non-standard size

  • You have multiple goals

  • You have multiple balls

  • You are not playing two equal halves with a halftime break

  • You cannot place the camera in the recommended location and are very close to other fields

Choose: Training session

What you'll get:

There will be no AI highlights, personalized highlights, or tactical highlights.

A fixed, full field recording that does not follow the ball. You will be able to create and save your own highlights.

Drills, practices, scrimmages without jerseys or pennies, licensing courses, futsal games.

Option 2: your practice session or scrimmage looks like a game

What does this mean?

  • Players are wearing jersey numbers.

  • The soccer field has two goals.

  • The game has two equal-length halves.

  • You switch sides between halves.

  • You do not substitute players from one team to another.

  • Smaller fields are clearly marked with cones for all 4 corners and the center line.

Choose: Trace a game

What you'll get:

As long as you set up your game properly, you will get the same results as a regular game: personalized playlists, tactical playlists, and full game footage that follows the ball.
