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, c licensing, footsal 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.
